  • Publication number: 20240243655
    Abstract: In a power factor correction PFC circuit control method and a PFC circuit, a control module determines that an alternating current on a single-phase input/output terminal is in a positive half cycle. The control module turns on or turns off switching transistors on the first bridge arm and the second bridge arm, to boost a first voltage at a first parallel connection point. The control module turns on a switching transistor on the third bridge arm when determining that the first voltage is equal to a voltage of a positive bus of the direct current module. A switching loss of the PFC circuit can be effectively reduced, and performance of the PFC circuit can be improved.
