A step-down nesting-type ac–ac converter combined with voltage equalizers and switched-capacitor simple converters

In this paper, we present an inductor-less direct ac–ac converter with improved nesting-type topology. Unlike existing direct ac–ac converters, the proposed ac–ac converter combines a voltage equalizer and a switched-capacitor (SC) simple converter. Owing to the nesting conversion using two techniqu...
