Abstract :
In this paper, switched-capacitor (SC) AC-DC / AC-AC converter with arbitrary output voltages using same circuit configuration is proposed. This converter can reduce voltage drop even if load currents are large, and can choice DC output or AC output by changing signal patterns of switches in the same AC input. The validity of the proposed converter is confirmed by SPICE simulations. The SPICE simulations showed that the output voltage and the output frequency can be determined arbitrarily.
