XMC1000: 230V Boost PFC - Critical Conduction Mode

230VAC IN

4kohm load

This example demonstrates active digital power factor correction performed by an XMC1302,
based on the DAVE project "PFC_XMC1302_CrCM".
Only the power factor corrector current loop is closed, by employing constant on-time and
zero-crossing detection. The voltage loop that controls the output voltage is left open (not
implemented). The constant on-time is fixed at a value that results in 410V output over the
fixed 4kohm load.

How to program the microcontroller:
1. Build project in DAVE
2. Export project into a .zip
3. Click on the microcontroller symbol
4. Click on the "MCU-code" details
5. Select "Upload"
6. Drag and drop the .zip file created earlier
7. Click "Upload", then click "OK"
8. (optional) Launch debugger by clicking
on the "TR" button on the top right
