 On this page, I describe the basic design, and provide some level of added detail for the implementation.

 We chose a power factor correction boost circuit as a basic design for our input stage.  The PFC circuit provides a few advantages:
   * **Higher rail voltage.**  In the US, rectifying 120V mains will result in only 170V on the rails.  SSTCs tend to perform better given higher voltage; the PFC design that we've chosen gives 350V on the rails (limited only by the expense of the switching components that we chose).
