Abstract
This paper presents a new isolated single-stage pulse-width modulation rectifier system based on the recently presented Swiss rectifier topology providing the isolation by replacing a buck with a forward converter. The principle of operation and a new modulation technique which compensates the reactive power generated by the input filter at light load and maximizes the power factor are discussed. Furthermore, the analytical equations for the stress in the semiconductor devices useful for the system optimization are derived. The proposed topology and modulation technique are experimentally validated on a 3.3-kW 115 Vac to 270 Vdc prototype demonstrator.
