A digital control scheme for GaN transistor-based totem pole power factor correction (PFC) is proposed in this paper. At the zero crossing, the totem pole PFC has a discontinuous conduction mode (DCM) current section because of its driving method and circuit structure. In the DCM current section, when a typical synchronous switching technique is applied, the inductor current is reduced to less than zero, thereby reducing efficiency. Moreover, because of the nature of the circuit, power may be transferred in reverse. To prevent this, a new synchronous switch technique using the cycle by cycle (CBC) trip function of the digital signal processor (DSP) is proposed. This proposed technique turns off the synchronization switch according to the set DCM level. Consequently, even at a low DCM level, the inductor current is clamped to zero, enabling stable synchronous switching.
