The adjustment unit is connected to the current sampling unit and receives the sampling current. The adjustment unit is composed of a fixed resistance branch and a variable resistance branch connected in parallel with the fixed resistance branch, and the variable resistance and fixed resistance branches receive the sampling current to generate a node voltage. The control unit controls a resistance of the variable resistance branch based on an input voltage and an output voltage of the power factor correction circuit. Thus, an equivalent resistance of the variable resistance branch and the fixed resistance branch is changed according to an operating state of the power factor correction circuit.
