The traditional critical conduction mode (CRM) flyback PFC converter with constant on-time control strategy usually suffers low power factor (PF) and high total harmonic distortion (THD) due to the nonsinusoidal input current waveform. In order to solve this problem, an improved variable on-time control strategy for the CRM flyback PFC converter is proposed in this letter. A simple analog divider circuit consisting of an operational amplifier, two signal switches, and an RC filter is proposed to modulate the turn-on time of the primary switch, and the PF and THD of the CRM flyback PFC converter can be evidently improved. The theoretical analysis is presented and the experiment results verify the advantages of the proposed control scheme.
