UNITY POWER FACTOR ISOLATED SINGLE PHASE MATRIX CONVERTER BATTERY CHARGER

摘要

Apparatus for unity power factor, isolated, single phase switch matrix converter/battery charger is provided. In one implementation, An AC grid voltage source is coupled to and inductor and a switching matrix. The inductor is charged and the switching matrix is controlled to crate various current paths for the voltage across the inductor to add to the AC grid voltage. The boosted AC grid voltage flow across an isolation transformer to be rectified and used to charge a battery matrix for an electric powered vehicle.
