“…However, due to the nonlinear nature of (1), a linear controller cannot be used without i L becoming distorted [10]. The distortion can be avoided if, in the closed loop, the state-space averaged input current dynamics are linear in the large.…”

“…Both peak current mode and average current mode controls are widely used [9]. The main difference between the two methods is that, in the latter, the sensed inductor current signal is averaged and compensated by a current compensation network [10], while in the former; only inductor current is sensed and used [11,12]. Although noise in average current mode control can be suppressed, the architecture of the system with average current mode control is complicated.…”

A systematic combination of the circuit elements to derive a new topology with low common mode noise is suggested in this paper. Conventionally, a majority of the new topology derivation or circuit refinement is fulfilled by changing a small part of the traditional circuits or adding extra circuits to them, which gives less insight to the new topology creation. The proposed combination method totally rearranges the circuit elements and finds new topologies, focusing on the basics of the topology -connections between the elements. The resultant H-bridge converter with the additional switches (HA converter) and its offspring circuits are proved to have low noise than their counterpart circuits by experiments. I. INTRODUCTIONCreating new circuit topology has been already reported for various purposes. To simplify the circuit structure and improve the efficiency, single-stage frond-end rectifiers are reported by merging power factor correction stage with its downstream DC-DC converters [1]. In low-voltage AC-DC converter, Dwari [2] paralleled the boost and buck-boost converter to improve the energy harvesting efficiency. The soft switching scheme to reduce the switching loss is implemented by adding resonant circuit elements to the conventional converters [3]. To develop low-noise converter, Shoyama [4] made the boost converter symmetric by splitting the boost inductance into two and employing an additional output diode, which confines the common mode current inside the converter circuit while it requires additional inductor and diode. Knurek [5] suggests changing the location of the MOSFET and diode to reduce the noise of forward converter. The aforementioned methods achieve the new topology by changing a small part of the traditional circuits or adding extra circuits to them, which gives less insight to the new topology creation.

“…It is felt that a systematic design procedure is necessary so that their relationship can be fully exploited. Understanding this relationship not only benefits the design of pre-regulators but also the design of some specific applications of non-cascading PFC switching regulators that require high conversion efficiency [17]- [19].…”

This paper investigates the effects of applying different input current waveshapes on the performance of a continuous-conduction-mode (CCM) power-factor-correction (PFC) boost pre-regulator. It is found that the output voltage ripple of the pre-regulator can be reduced if the input current is modified to include controlled amount of higher order harmonics. This finding allows us to balance the performance of output regulation and the harmonic current emission when coming to the design of the pre-regulator. An experimental PFC boost pre-regulator prototype is constructed to verify the analysis and show the benefit of the pre-regulator operating with input current containing higher order harmonics.
