Abstract
A three-phase current source rectifier (CSR) with three AC inputs may include a controller, a free-wheeling diode with a cathode connected to a positive line and an anode connected to a negative line, three pairs of switches connected in parallel between the positive line and the negative line, and six pairs of diodes, each pair of the diodes connected in series. Each two pairs of the diodes may be connected in parallel with each other and in series with a respective pair of switches. Each AC input may be connected to between each of two pairs of the diodes.
