3.1 Totem Pole PFC

Boost converters dominate PFC applications due to continuous input current, which can be controlled using average current mode control. The converter forces input current to match phase changes in line voltage. High inherent efficiency and wide duty cycle range make boost converters more attractive.

While a basic single-phase boost converter is adequate for low-power, non-isolated applications, GaN totem pole PFC techniques provide additional advantages in high-power and highly efficient applications. Totem pole PFC increases efficiency since this removes the diode bridge, GaN furthermore reduces inductance size by increasing switching frequency since GaN has low switching loss.
