Abstract
A three-phase boost-buck PFC converter including three independent single-phase boost-buck PFC circuits respectively is provided, which are capable of performing PFC on each phase of the three-phase power. The single-phase boost-buck PFC circuit is composed of two single-phase boost-buck converters independently working in a positive and a negative half cycle of an input voltage, and the two single-phase boost-buck converters are connected in parallel at an input side, and are connected in series at an output side, and each of the single-phase boost-buck converters is composed of a front-end boost circuit and a back-end buck circuit connected in cascade. Compared to the existing technique, regardless of a boost mode or a buck mode, the conduction loss is effectively reduced, and the whole system efficiency is effectively improved.
