The capacitors are charged in serie, and discharged, via the two diodes, in parallel. Current is drawn from the line from 30 to 150, and then from 210 to 330. Discontinuities occur from 150 to 210 and from 330 to 360, and then the cycle repeats itself. Disadvantages of this PFC solution are spikes on input current waveform and large zero current gaps between the half sinusoidal wave and the next one (meaning a lower power factor and high input current distortion), and high ripple in the DC output voltage that causes poor performance in High Power Lamps. On the other hand, high performances can be achieved by IC driver optimized for controlling PFC regulators in boost topology as shown in Figure 3.

The proposed Bipolar PFC solution targets the low-cost HF Ballast market up to 80 W as it provides a simple cost-effective solution without sacrificing THD and PF levels. It does not need any ICs to achieve the PWM signal since it uses just a power bipolar transistor and a closed-loop feedback that performs the duty cycle modulation and a satisfactory output power regulation.

Application description
The active PFC solution with Bipolar transistor adopts the Boost topology working in Discontinuous Conduction mode. This is the most simple and cost-effective solution for 220V and 120V mains and low\medium power. Figure 4. Base schematic of Bipolar PFC in HF ballast voltage Fed
No IC is used to generate a PWM signal, but the physical relation (tS, IC) of any power bipolar transistor is exploited when the base current IB value is kept constant. Figure 5 shows two different storage time values at two different input VAC values: in t1 the bipolar reaches a higher saturation level than in t2, and this means tS1>tS2. The overall switch on time is given by the sum of "IBON time" plus the storage time, therefore, if the "IBON time" is constant, the duty cycle changes according to the ts modulation. This natural duty cycle variation generates an appropriate PWM signal to

The duty cycle modulation performed by the Basic Solution shown in Figure 4 is not enough effective to achieve high THD values and no protection task can be implemented against overoload or high VAC values. A negative feedback network has been introduced to further control the duty cycle modulation by modifying the total Qon charge which is injected into the T1 base. Chapter Figure 9. on page 9 shows the complete solution of the proposed PFC stage. Figure 9. Complete electrical schematic of the Bipolar PFC in HF Ballast
The feed-back block in Figure 11 changes the T1 QON charge by modifying both the IBON amplitude and duration through the intervention of the transistor T2. In particular the proposed network by the T2 conduction reduces the base current permitting to reduce the duty cycle of the main switch (T1) performing a further THD correction and output power regulation.

The network D8, R3, DZ1, and C3 in Figure 11 ensures the switch protection during start-up thanks to a smart combination of three input signals. 1. 2. 3. Input 1 comes from the Main Voltage and it'is used to limit the amount of the distortion improving the THD. Input 2 comes from PFC Vout : it'is used to further regulate the power factor and to regulate the PFC Vout against supply voltage variations. Input 3 signal is a voltage proportional to the pre-heating current during start up and it' is used. to protect the power switch against over voltage . The Output signal is the base current driving the T1 main switch.
The transistor T2 during its On-state modifies the natural modulation imposed by the storage time variation of the transistor T1 since:
It reduces the time constant during the charge of the capacitor C2 thus reducing the time length of the On base current of T1 It shunts part of the same current to ground thus reducing its amplitude.
The combination of the previous two effects implies a reduction of the duty cycle of the transistor T1 helping to correct the THD and the power factor level . The schottky diode Ds in series with the collector of the transistor T2 by blocking any reverse current on the transistor itself ensures a low voltage drop during T2 on state. The steady state waveforms associated to the new proposed circuit are below reported in Figure 16. Figure 12. PFC waveforms with Feedback block working Figure 13.

Selection of boost output inductor L1
The boost output inductor L1 is calculated in the peak of sinusoidal voltage at maximum instantaneous input power in order to obtain the minimum IP value assuring the discontinuous mode operation. This calculation is made considering a working operation at constant current peak IP, due to the base current modulation, and fixing a working switching frequency. Supposed a purely resistive load it is: Equation 1
( VM · IM ) P = V e f f · I e f f = -----------------------2
where VM is the maximum input main voltage and IM is the maximum input main current. Then from Equation 1, Equation 2
VM · IM = 2 P
Now considered the total energy stored by the inductor in the period at the maximum input main voltage: Equation 3
2P E T O T = 2 P T = ------fs w
where T is the period and fSW is the working switching frequency. But the total energy stored by the inductor in the period is, also, the sum of two contributes, the first LI2P/2, due to the inductor L1 charge and the other one, VMIptB/2, due to the discharge of the same via the main voltage, then equalizing the two terms we obtain: Equation 4
2 L I P VM · Ip tB 2 P-------- = ---------- + ----------------------2 2 fS W
where IP is the peak of the working switching current at maximum voltage VM and tB is the inductor discharge time that is: Equation 5
LI t B = --------------P--------Vo u t VM
with Vout imposed at 390V and it is the PFC output voltage. Substituting tB in Equation 4: Equation 6
2 Vo u t L IP VM · IP L IP LI P 2P -------- = ---------- + ------------------ · ------------------------ = ---------- ------------------------ 2 V o u t V M 2 V o u t V M 2 fS W 2
calculated in the max point of the sinusoid, in general for 30t 50 it can be can 1 written:

where according to the working operation, LI2P/2 is the constant term, while the other one contains the sinusoidal modulation of the main current with 30PM = VM · IM
but IM is also the medium value of the peak of the working switching current in the period T corresponding to the max point of the Main Voltage VM. Equation 9
tA + tB I M = I P · --------------2T
where tA=LIP/VM is the L1 charge time and tB=LIP/Vout-VM is the L1 discharge time. Now from Equation 9: Equation 10
2T I P = I M · --------------tA + tB
Substituting Equation 10 in Equation 7 and resolving by L: Equation 11
P L = --- · f Vo u t VM +t 2 1 t-A----------- · ------- · ---------------------- ---- B 2 Vo u t T IM
where tA+tB/T is chosen equal to 0.70 in order to ensure that the circuit remains in the discontinuous mode leaving a dead-time of 0.3T.

Selection of boost output capacitor C4
The PFC works to obtain a sinusoidal Main Current. Therefore the capacitor C4 will charge with a rectified current at double half-wave shape, as shown in Figure 17. This current shape will generate on the electrolytic capacitor an almost continuous voltage with a ripple value depending on the same capacitor value. In order to calculate the capacitor C4, the current flowing on the electrolytic capacitor can be asssumed as thoroughly the sum of two contributions, one due to a continuous component and other one due to an alternate component, as shown in Figure 17. The alternate component will have double frequency respect to the main frequency.

PFC driving network
The network composed by the capacitor and resistor in series to the base of the power bipolar transistor T1 are chosen in order to fix the duty-cycle at level less than 50% in the max point of the main sinusoid and they determine the conduction time of the device, while the base-emitter resistor has the function to regulate the capacitor discharge during the off state of the device and to define the duty-cycle. The bipolar transistor used as switching is driven in a self-oscillating configuration taking the signal in order to polarize its base through an auxiliary winding on the transformer normally used in the ballast. This signal can assume three different shapes depending on the signal shape on the ballast due to the di/dt variation of the Ballast inductor current. The inductor current is the sum of the Transistor Collector Current, Diode Current and Snubber Capacitor Current. 1. End collector current with di/dt>0

The shape of the transformer voltage in a half period T/2 is: Equation 21
( VA VB ) · t V T ( t ) = V A -------------------------------T -2
After the initial instant, the capacitor begins to charge and, as soon as VC(t)=VT(t) the base V current IB and R 2 are equal to zero and the storage time of the device is beginning, so considering this instant t2 that is t IB O N you have: Equation 22
VT ( t2 ) = VB E + VC ( t2 ) = VB E + VC + vC ( t2 )
0
where VC(t2), voltage on the capacitor C2, is the sum of two terms VC 0, that is the initial capacitor voltage, and vc(t2) , that is the voltage variation due to the charge of the capacitor, VBE= 0.2V is base-emitter voltage when IB is equal to zero and taking in consideration that there are charges stored into the base of the transistor. Equalizing the two expressions 21 and 22 at this instant, you obtain: Equation 23
( VA VB ) · t2 V A ----------------------------------- = V B E + V C + v C ( t 2 ) 0 T -2 by considering VA=4VB 6V, VB=1.5V and t2= t IB O N .

where Q T O TT 1 is the total amount of charge on T1 and Q T 2 is the amount of charge on the collector of T2. In the following picture it has been indicated with Q1 the amount of charge provided in the base during the turn-on of the device, while the Q2 is the amount of charge during the storage time, thus the total amount of charge is: Figure 23.

In order to calculate the two resistors R13 and R14 value in Figure 11 it has been imposed Vz3=200V, supposing that this feed-back block acts from this voltage value. Two instants must be considered: 1. 2. The zener diode doesn't yet conduct for t=30; The zener diode already conducts for t=90.
Therefore the two equations to be considered are: Equation 48
V D C o u t V Z 3 V i n ( t = 30 ) V Z 3 ---------------------------------- + -------------------------------------------------- = 0 R 13 R 14 V D C o u t V Z 3 V i n ( t = 90 ) V Z 3 --- ---------------------------------- + ---------------------R------------------------- = I Z 3 = I B O N T 2 R 14 13
where IBON T2 can be calculated knowing the the peak hFE of the T2 device at a minimum current value (IC=50mA ) (hFE =170). Equation 48 has to be solved by R13 and R14.
