In this paper, a high performance single-phase modified bridgeless AC–DC converter with reduced switch voltage stress for power factor correction (PFC) is introduced. The proposed converter is based on a single-ended primary-inductance converter (SEPIC) to meet the demands of PFC to unity and output voltage regulation. To reduce the number of components, the input bridge is combined with the SEPIC converter since the conventional SEPIC PFC is suffering with high conduction losses. It offers many advantages, such as fewer semiconductor devices in current flowing path which lead to improve the thermal management, low stress on each component, improved efficiency, high power factor compared to classical converter. Detailed analysis and design equations of the converter are presented. Simulation and experimental results are discussed for a 300[Formula: see text]W prototypeunder the universal input voltage (85–235[Formula: see text]V) to validate the performance of the converter.
