This study presents a novel digital double-loop control method, that is, inner current loop and outer voltage loop, for a single-stage isolated Cuk power factor correction (PFC) converter in continuous conduction mode (CCM). First, control law of current loop, consisting of a current term and a voltage term, is derived. Considering that inductance value of inductors varies with load change, an adaptive gain scheduling method is applied to change the current term. Second, control law of voltage loop is derived based on proportional-integral control with introducing linearisation and feedforward compensation. Meanwhile, a moving average filter is utilised to decrease ripple effect of output voltage, and thus smoother input signal for current loop and fast dynamic response for voltage loop are guaranteed. A 1600 W one-phase isolated Cuk PFC converter controlled by a digital signal processor is developed and achieves power factor higher than 0.99, total harmonic distortion of input current lower than 8.5% with load varying from 25 to 100% and fast dynamic response performance. Finally, a 4800 W three-phase AC-DC converter based on the above PFC converter is implemented and its performance additionally indicate that current sharing issue can be easy to deal with by using the proposed control method.
