Abstract

See full text

A power frequency converter and an associated method are provided to convert an AC input signal at a first frequency, such as a first frequency that is permitted to vary within a range, to an AC output signal at a second frequency that is different than the first frequency and that may be fixed. The power frequency converter includes a plurality of power rectification modules. Each power rectification module includes a plurality of power rectification components for receiving different phases of an input signal at a first frequency. Each power rectification module is configured to provide an output signal to a load, such as an induction motor, at a second frequency. The power frequency converter also includes a controller configured to provide control signals to selectively enable the power rectification modules. The controller is configured to provide the control signals without synchronization to the first frequency.
