Summary:In this work, a novel off-line converter with power factor correction (PFC) and pulse-width modulated (PWM) dimming function employing a single active power switch is proposed for LED lighting. The proposed converter is a slightly modified flyback topology which enables the main switch to be used both for power factor correction and PWM high-frequency dimming with a constant peak on the current through the LEDs, thus conserving chromatic characteristics of emitted light. The proposed control scheme uses duty-cycle to control the light level, while switching frequency is varied along to adjust the input power and keep a constant LED peak current. The converter is able to dim LEDs without losing its PFC characteristics. Mathematical description and experimental results of a prototype with 100 W of peak power fed from 127 V mains voltage are presented in this paper to show feasibility of the novel single-switch driver proposal.
