Modeling and Simulation of Cuk-Converter Using Single Phase Matrix Converter Topology

This paper demonstrates the implementation of Cuk-Converter using a single-phase matrix converter topology (SPMC). A modified switching technique is used here to use SPMC as a Cuk-Converter. The pulse width modulation (PWM) is used to estimate the gate pulse of switches. Cuk-Converter is well known as a DC-DC converter in which demanded output voltage from a fixed DC input supply. Cuk-Converter can be used as a step-up circuit or step down the circuit. The main advantage of Cuk-Converter is that output can be higher or lower than the input supply voltage and the output voltage is the reverse of the input voltage. In this paper, Cuk-Converter is implemented by SPMC using PWM Technique. To overcome the spikes of output voltage safe commutation technique used.
