Abstract :
This paper presents a converter that allows the operation as rectifier or inverter, with high power factor, which the voltage output can be lower, equal or greater than the peak of the input voltage, besides that working with only a cell of conventional switching. The operation stages, equations, control strategy and design of the converter are presented. Finally, simulation results are shown for operation as rectifier and inverter
