Abstract

New advancements in light-emitting diode (LED) have attracted many to use LEDs in commercial and industrial applications. In the recent years, new family of DC-to-DC converters, namely super-lift Luo converters, has evolved in the power electronics terrain which have high gain than the conventional boost converter. In this paper, AC–DC converter with super-lift Luo converter as PFC topology for high-brightness light-emitting diode applications is proposed. When subjected to load and line variations, power quality parameters of PFC AC–DC converter will have a change. The indices continue to change till the output voltage gets stabilized. For fast regulation under transient conditions, particle swarm optimization tuned proportional–integral (PI) controller is used. MATLAB/Simulink environment is used to carry out extensive simulation on the work proposed. The laboratory model is constructed and tested to verify simulation results. Total harmonic distortion at the input side of an AC–DC converter is validated as per the standards of IEC 61000-3-2 of class c equipment’s.
