Abstract
Solid-state autotransformers are provided. A system can include a first switch coupled to a first line in which an alternating current signal is conveyed. The system can include a second switch coupled to a second line in which the alternating current signal is conveyed. The second switch can be coupled to the first switch. The first switch can, responsive to a magnitude of a first voltage from the first line to a terminal exceeding a magnitude of a second voltage from the second line to the terminal, pass current from the first line to the terminal. The second switch can, responsive to the magnitude of the second voltage exceeding the magnitude of the first voltage, pass current from the second line to the terminal.
