A simple zero current switch circuit includes a first coil set and a
second coil set that are wound at a selected coil ratio and bridge
electrically an energy storing inductor, an output diode and a conduction
switch of a power-factor corrector. The leaking inductance of the first
coil set generates a back electromotive force to make the conduction
switch in a zero current switching condition. An energy conversion
circuit is provided to store reverse energy according to the coil ratio
of the second coil set and the first coil set and reclaims the energy to
an output capacitor of the power-factor corrector while the output diode
generates a reverse recovery condition. Thereby reverse recovery time of
the output diode can be shortened.
