Abstract
A three phase full resonant cyclo-converter suitable for converting a three phase AC supply to a DC output. In one embodiment the cycloconverter controls switching frequency to control converter output and adjusts phase on times for power factor correction. A switching sequence is employed which provides resonant switching to reduce losses and component ratings. The converter provides high conversion efficiency with a simple power component design.
