Abstract
With the introduction of variable speed drives the term energy efficiency is achieved through power
electronic converter. Energy conversion in required format can be obtained using suitable power electronic
converter circuit. AC – DC, AC – AC, DC – AC and DC – DC is possible as required by our application with
significant energy savings. In this paper step down Cycloconverter which converts AC – AC is simulated using
MATLAB simulink software and the output voltage for various firing angles in mid – point and bridge type step
down Cycloconverter is studied.
