Electrical lighting has been an important technology to modern society. Given the increasing concerns about environmental and energy saving issues, light-emitting-diode (LED) has become the research focus due to the features of mercury elimination and high energy efficiency compared to conventional lamps. Performance aspects of LED lighting are related with LED driver, thus an appropriate converter should be designed to power up the LEDs with good input power factor and high efficiency. To achieve these elements, single-stage alternating current to direct current (AC-DC) converter with power factor correction (PFC) is proposed as LED driver for application in street lighting. In this topology, a pair of boost circuits which share a single inductor are combined as a PFC stage and then integrated with half-bridge LLC resonant converter. Three kinds of rectifier circuits are proposed for the secondary-side rectification; full-wave bridge rectifier, full-wave voltage doubler rectifier and dual half-wave rectifiers. All rectifier circuits have their own advantages and remove the requirement of center-tapped transformer in circuit design.
