Universal Switch Mode Power Supply with PFC
The power supply we’ve designed for our Connect Series amplifiers is a single stage interleaved PFC
power supply. PFC and isolation stage (normally two separate power stages) merged into one stage with
this type of supply. Consequently, this makes the design smaller, more efficient and cheaper for the
power level.
the type of PFC we are using for LEA products is Active PFC. We chose Active PFC over Passive
because, Active PFC has many advantages over Passive PFC, such as:
1st – Provides universal input and produces a regulated output voltage.
2nd – Active PFC is smaller and lighter, more so as power goes up.
3rd – It’s able to achieve unity power factor across a wide load and input range.
4th – Active PFC can reduce input current harmonics.
