ABSTRACT:
The present invention converts an alternating current input into a direct current output by switching a current load at high speeds to create a voltage envelope having a maximum allowed voltage and a minimum allowed voltage. Complementary switching elements are employed to take advantage of both the positive and negative portions of an AC cycle. Load switching is arranged so that the current vector which represents the load is nearly coincident with the voltage vector which represents the power source. The system can operate in an open loop mode at a constant frequency, in a closed loop mode, or in a hysteresis mode. During open loop operation, the voltage envelope is not rigidly defined as the switching frequency remains constant. During hysteresis mode control, the voltage envelope remains fixed and the current switching frequency varies.
