One recent application field that requires an efficient PFC boost converter is the Wireless Power Transfer system (WPT). In this paper, the design of a single-phase PFC boost converter is presented. The proposed converter comprises three parallel switches to reduce the component stress and ensuring safe circuit operation. It utilizes FAN6982 Continuous Conduction Mode (CCM) controller. The design of the controller circuit and the controller parameter specifications are presented. Design guidelines for components are provided. The designed PFC boost converter is first validated in PSIM simulation software and then a 1.5 kW/ 350 V-dc prototype is implemented. The experimental results verify that the PFC boost converter achieves the power factor of 0.99 at the full load.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessPower factor correctioncontinuous current mode controlboost converterparalleled switchesConference Object395400WOS:00071929360005610.1109/INDUSCON51756.2021.95298712-s2.0-85115886490
