Abstract :
A new pulse width modulated (PWM) current source inverter (CSI) topology using one controlled switch and six SCRs is presented. The converter uses active commutation to realize pulse width modulation in a conventional SCR based CSI. Modulation techniques for the proposed CSI and switch control are developed. This topology is suitable for high performance, high power CSI applications
