AC Current Sensing

The AC current sensing circuit is used to convert the PFC inductor current signal into a low voltage signal, and then to condition the sensed signal to meet the requirements of the ADC input port. As part of PFC inner current loop control, AC current sensing is crucial for both bandwidth and accuracy. A TMCS1126B4 is used for AC current sensing as shown in Figure 3-3.
