ABSTRACT:
An AC to DC power converter comprises an input filter for filtering the alternating current input and an output filter for filtering and smoothing the direct current power output to a load. The output alternating current of the input filter is rectified and electronically switched by buck and boost switching circuits at a frequency much higher than the frequency of the alternating line current input. The rectified line current is sensed and provided to a control circuit which controls the operation of the buck and boost switching such that the power line current will follow a predetermined reference voltage waveform.
