Abstract: For a power supply with a reduced number of semiconductor devices, a transformer receives a three-phase primary voltage and steps the three-phase primary voltage up or down to a secondary voltage with a plurality of secondary winding sets to a plurality of first phase voltages, a plurality of second phase voltages, and a plurality of third phase voltages. A plurality of power cell sets each include a plurality of power cells cascaded connected. Each power cell comprises a rectifier and an inverter. The rectifier includes two first active switches that are serially connected and receive a phase voltage at a first switch midpoint, two second active switches that are serially connected and receive another phase voltage at a second switch midpoint, and two capacitors that are serially connected and receive another phase voltage at a capacitor midpoint between the capacitors.

Abstract: For a power supply with a reduced number of semiconductor devices, a phase shifting transformer receives a three-phase primary voltage and steps the three-phase primary voltage one of up and down to a secondary voltage with a plurality of secondary winding sets. There is phase shifting between different secondary winding sets. A plurality of power cell sets each comprise a plurality of power cells cascaded connected, and each power cell receives one of a single phase and a three-phase voltage of a distinct secondary winding set of the phase shifting transformer. Each power cell comprises no more than eight power semiconductor devices organized as a rectifier and an inverter. Each power semiconductor device is one of a diode and an active switch. Each power cell set generates one phase of a three-phase alternating current output.

Abstract: For power converter pre-charge with line synchronization, a method magnetizes a power transformer of a power converter with a supply voltage from a variable voltage variable frequency supply. The method pre-charges power cells of the power converter fed from the power transformer to a specified voltage with the supply voltage. The method further modifies a primary amplitude, a primary phase, and a primary frequency of a primary winding of the power converter with the supply voltage to match a main amplitude, a main phase, and a main frequency of a main voltage of a main power source. In response to matching the primary amplitude, the primary phase, and the primary frequency to the main amplitude, the main phase, and the main frequency, the method connects the main power source to the power transformer.
