Abstract: This paper presents a closed loop control of an active-clamped full-wave quasi-resonant boost converter with zero-current-switching (ZCS) for power factor correction. Possibility to incorporate higherswitching frequency and has some potency to reduce switching losses. Power factor improvement and high efficiency is achieved with a constant output voltage and DC output voltage is regulated by using closed loop control .The concept of the proposed switchingscheme results lesser switching loss, higher efficiency, possibility to have higher switching frequency, and has potential to reduce converter’s conducted EMI. This paper also presents voltage regulation using closed loop system and the simulation results are verified.
