 Author(s)   Florent Liffran 
 Abstract   This paper will explore the constraints for designing the inductor in a Boost Power Factor Corrected (PFC) converter working in continuous current mode (CCM). An original method will be proposed to optimize the inductor design by focusing on the possibilities offered by a given core in function of its winding parameters. Optimal current ripple and inductance value will be determined for each application. The influence of the switching frequency will also be quantified, as well as a pertinent comparison between the different powder core materials.
