Zusammenfassung:Aspects relate to utilizing power factor correction to compensate for a leading power factor produced mainly due to electromagnetic interference (EMI) capacitors in front of a power factor correction stage. Provided is a power supply that includes a power factor correction circuit that includes a second harmonic generator component. The harmonic generator component includes a filter component and an integrator component. The filter component is configured to receive a rectified voltage and a power factor correction current and block a direct current component. The integrator component is configured to receive an alternating current component from the filter component and produce a harmonic that causes an angle of the power factor correction current to change from a leading power factor to a unity power factor or to a lagging power factor.
