Abstract :
An ac to dc converter which draws sinusoidal and in phase current waveforms from the ac power source is described. Harmonic and power factor measurements obtained from an FET converter operating at 45 kHz for a single phase and a three phase connection are presented. A stability analysis and design methodology is given.
