Abstract

Firing signals for the power switches in static power frequency changers are generated by comparing the integral of the output waveform ripple voltage to a repetitively generated stabilizing signal phase locked to, but having a time dependent magnitude independent of, the component waveforms of the output voltage. The stabilizing signal which changes in magnitude in one direction with time is reset to an initial level each time a firing signal is generated.
