This system uses the MSP430F6638 and FPGA as the core, includes full bridge rectifier circuit, power factor correction circuit, Boost/Buck circuit and sample circuit. According to the sampling voltage and current value, The FPGA adjusts PWM wave duty ratio of power factor correction chip UC3854, completing single phase AC/DC conversion circuit with a voltage outer closed-loop and current inner closed-loop and active power factor correction (APFC). Test shows that the output voltage can stable in a setting value, with amplitude range ±0.05V, and when load’s impedance changes, this circuit can keep a small voltage adjustment rate and load adjustment rate. We use electronic parameter measurement device to measure the efficiency of AC/DC converter in a specified condition (voltage input Us=24V, current output Io=2A, voltage output Uo=36V), result demonstrates it’s a relatively ideal value. At the same time, under the control of UC3854, the power factor of alternating current input is 0.9734.And when we set the range of power factor between 0.8~1.0, The circuit can automatically adjust the power factor to track the set value.
