A power factor corrected boost converter circuit includes a rectifier
connectable to an ac input and having a rectified dc output provided
across a dc bus, an inductor having first and second terminals connected
in one leg of the dc bus, an integrated circuit comprising a control
circuit for controlling a switch, the integrated circuit including a
housing enclosing the control circuit, the integrated circuit having a
power terminal, a ground terminal, a first control input terminal coupled
to an output of the converter circuit, and a second control input
terminal coupled to a sensor for sensing current in the dc bus and
further having an output terminal connected to the switch, a boost
rectifier diode having a first terminal, the diode coupled to the
inductor, and a storage capacitor connected to the diode. The control
circuit comprises a one cycle control circuit having an integrator reset
by a clock signal for each cycle of the clock signal. The circuit further
includes any or all of an inrush current limiting circuit for limiting
the current through the inductor to a value below a predetermined level,
a fan motor speed controller and a housekeeping power supply controller.
