 Abstract   This paper describes the fast-scale instability in a power-factor-correction (PFC) boost converter under a conventional average current mode control. The converter is operated in continuous mode. Computer simulations and theoretical analysis are performed to study the e ects of the time-varying input voltage under the variation of some chosen parameters on the qualitative behaviour of the system. It is found that fast-scale instability may occur during a line cycle. The results provide useful information for the design of PFC boost converters for stable operation. Keywords|Power-factor-correction boost converter, average current-mode control, bifurcation, fast-scale instability.
