Abstract: In this work, a non-isolated DC-DC converter is proposed to maintain the Power Factor Correction (PFC) at input AC mains and also speed of the Brush-Less DC (BLDC) motor initiative which is varied with respect to DC-link voltage. The diode bridge rectifier converts the single phase AC to DC. The Fuzzy Logic controller provides the required gate signals to the power semiconductor switch in the non-isolated DC-DC converter. The results of the projected work have been validated using MATLAB/SIMULINK.
