ABSTRACT:
In a switch mode power supply, a full wave rectified AC mains supply voltage is produced from an AC mains supply voltage without low-pass filtering. The unfiltered rectified voltage is applied to a winding of a flyback transformer that is coupled to a switching transistor. A first plurality of current pulses are generated in the winding from the rectified voltage at a frequency that is higher than the frequency of the mains supply voltage and at peak amplitudes that vary in accordance with the rectified voltage in a manner to increase a power factor. The rectified voltage is further rectified via a rectifier coupled in series with a resistor and a low-pass filter capacitor and produces current pulses in the capacitor. A voltage in the capacitor is coupled via a second switching transistor to the winding to produce in the winding a second plurality of current pulses that reduce a ripple component at an output of the power supply. The resistor increases the pulse-width and decreases the magnitude of the capacitor current pulses in a manner to reduce input harmonic contents and increase the power factor.
