Abstract:
There is provided a bridgeless power factor correction circuit that corrects a power factor by complementarily switching two switches according to phase of input power without using rectifier bridge diodes. A bridgeless power factor correction circuit according to an aspect of the invention may include: a switching unit having a plurality of switches and alternately switching input AC power; a stabilizing unit rectifying and smoothing the power switched by the switching unit; and a control unit controlling an alternate switching operation between the plurality of switches according to phases of the input power.
