Abstract
A three-phase flyback AC-DC convertor, which has the step-up and step-down characteristics of output voltage, is described. The introduction of pulsewidth modulation makes it possible to obtain the sinusoidal supply currents with a near unity power factor. Three gate-turn-off thyristors provide the necessary control over the currents for unidirectional power flow. To improve upon the oscillatory transient operations, the tested system includes the digital PID controller using a microcomputer for output voltage regulations. The experimental results and state-space simulations confirm the usefulness of the presented convertor.
