ABSTRACT:
The invention is to provide an auxiliary circuit for power factor corrector (PFC) having self-power supplying and zero current detection (ZCD) mechanisms, which comprises a filter capacitor electrically coupled to a secondary winding of an inductor of the auxiliary circuit installed in a power supply and two resistors respectively coupled the positive and negative terminals of the filter capacitor in series with a ZCD pin of a PFC. Such that the secondary winding can be shared by the ZCD and the power supply pins of the PFC to eliminate a necessity of providing an additional ZCD winding and reduce the complexity of circuitry, the manufacturing cost, and a size of power supply without sacrificing power.
