A power factor correction (PFC) charge-pump (CP) bridgeless converter for LEDs is presented. In the input stage, coupled inductors, together with CP capacitors, are integrated into a half-bridge inverter, thus characterising the single stage. This topology even being bridgeless due to the positioning of the load operates with a bus voltage below the bending voltage. The CP configuration is used to reduce the LED's current ripple. The prototype achieves an output power of 60 W with high power factor, achieving the efficiency of up to 94%, 127 V ac input, total harmonic distortion of input current, with harmonic magnitudes within the IEC 61000-3-2 standard class C the device limits and flicker in conformed with the recommendation of IEEE 1789.
