A novel single-switch single-stage high power factor LED driver is proposed by integrating a flyback converter, a buck–boost converter and a current balance circuit. Only an active switch and a corresponding control circuit are used. The LED power can be adjusted by the control scheme of pulse–width modulation (PWM). The flyback converter performs the function of power factor correction (PFC), which is operated at discontinuous-current mode (DCM) to achieve unity power factor and low total current harmonic distortion (THDi). The buck–boost converter regulates the dc-link voltage to obtain smooth dc voltage for the LED. The current–balance circuit applies the principle of ampere-second balance of capacitors to obtain equal current in each LED string. The steady-state analyses for different operation modes is provided, and the mathematical equations for designing component parameters are conducted. Finally, a 90-W prototype circuit with three LED strings was built and tested. Experimental results show that the current in each LED string is indeed consistent. High power factor and low THDi can be achieved. LED power is regulated from 100% to 25% rated power. Satisfactory performance has proved the feasibility of this circuit.


In this paper, a single switch single stage switched inductor based cuk converter with power factor correction control techniques is proposed. The main features of the proposed converter is low current stress, high voltage conversion ratio, reduction of components, high efficiency, low THD, etc., The operation of the proposed converter is explained in several modes along with the design of the converter. The performance of the proposed converter with different loads such as resistive, battery and motor loads with CC and CV control is analyzed and various factors such as power factor, efficiency and THD are compared. The Simulation work is carried out in MATLAB/Simulink software.
