    ­1. AI server power delivery raises the density challenge AI accelerators concentrate more computing, and therefore more electrical power, within limited rack and board space. Supplying these loads is not simply a matter of increasing converter output. Every power‑delivery stage must balance conversion ef

    1.5kW Digital Totem Pole PFC Design for Air-Conditioner Using iMOTION Digital Controller

    Figure 1: Simplified hardware diagram

    A lot of research focuses on bridgeless PFC in order to achieve higher system efficiency compared to traditional boost PFC. Most of the bridgeless PFC solutions suffer from EMI issues, which cause problems in applications where an  inverter stage shares the same ground. In this case, the PFC stage generates
