Abstract
For regulated outputs, most industrial applications require AC-DC conversion followed by SMPS converters. Power Factor Correction (PFC) converters with a boost type front end are used to achieve a sinusoidal input current that is in phase with the input sinusoidal voltage while keeping the output voltage constant. In AC-DC conversion, power factor is important because for the same amount of active power transfer, there are two different power factors. To maximize the active power pulled from the supply mains, the system's power factor must be kept near to unity. A combination of rectifier and Boost converter is employed in this study to achieve this. The outputs of voltage and current sensors were connected to Arduino, and the power factor was obtained by calculating the real and perceived power.
