Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2013189952A2] The invention relates to a reversible matrix converter circuit with n levels per phase comprising n conversion arms exhibiting on one side n ends for generating or receiving respectively n intermediate DC voltage levels, and exhibiting on another side n ends linked at a common point of AC signal input or output. This circuit comprises:- two external arms linked respectively to the highest level of positive voltage and to the lowest level of negative voltage, these two external arms each comprising a single IGBT transistor or two power transistors, linked by their emitter, - two IGBT power transistors, linked in series by their emitter on each of the n-1 internal arms, - filtering capacitors disposed respectively between the n intermediate voltage levels.
