This study proposes an implementation based on a low‐cost field‐programmable gate array (FPGA) of a high‐resolution pulse width modulation applied on a single‐phase power factor correction (PFC) converter operating with 2 MHz switch frequency. The PFC was implemented using a half‐bridge enhancement‐mode Gallium Nitride (eGaN) field effect transistor with on‐board gate drives (EPC9003 development board) and the MAX10 FPGA.
