Abstract :
Forced Clommutated Cycloconverters (FCCs) are converter structures capable of providing simultaneous voltage and frequency transformation without the need of intermediate stage reactive components. Consequently, they are well suited for high power density variable frequency applications. This paper focuses on the analysis, design and performance characteristics of some novel FCC structures, which require less control complexity and yield better voltage utilization than presently known structures.
