Abstract

ARM cortex-M4 processors family appeared in year 2006 and since than becomes a most common processor family used in mobile phone applications and other appliances including personal computers, televisions, photocopiers and similar. In this article it has been used in order to obtain efficient power factor correction (PFC). It was tested modified average current method with modification in sense of histeresis, in sense of current sensor and in sense of driver in order to decrease operating voltage and to increase efficiency for low power, low speed wind power generation systems. A simulation and practical results were presented.
