Abstract
A power conversion system is described which includes a power input for accepting a waveform at a given power level and frequency, and a power output for providing an output waveform at a second given power level. A DC to AC converter accepts a waveform based on an input wave form from the power input and converts the waveform to an AC waveform having a frequency at least approximately an order of magnatude higher than the frequency of the input waveform for application to a DC to AC converter output. An AC converter accepts the output waveform from the DC to AC converter output and provides a converted waveform from an output of the AC converter to the power output. A coupling device operates at the frequency of the converter output for coupling the output of the DC to AC converter to the AC converter.
