We offer Power Factor Correction Chokes (PFC Chokes) from Coilcraft and Würth Elektronik.PFC Chokes allow voltage and current waveforms to be in phase, maximizing the power in switch mode power supply circuits. Their highly efficient properties make them some of the most cost-effective products available.The advantages of PFC Chokes include:
- Reduced Harmonic Currents — PFC Chokes can smooth out the AC waveform, reducing harmonics, and allowing the circuit to meet emissions regulations.
- Improved Efficiency — When the power factor is increased (voltage and current wave forms in phase) more of the available power is usable, making the circuit more efficient.
- Reduced Size — Since less power is wasted, and lost in the form of heat, components can be smaller, saving size and cost.
