Abstract: For boosting AC voltage step up transformer is required; an alternative solution for boosting AC voltage is power electronic converters. Conventional AC-AC converters cyclo and matrix converter does not have boosting capability. By adding inductive and capacitive passive elements and operating switches at high frequencies enables the boosting capability of matrix converters. This study presents a new high step up matrix converter with phase shifted output for AC applications. During low voltage scenario these types of converters are employed for applying constant voltage for appliances. A simple maximum boost PWM technique is employed for pulse generation of proposed high step up matrix converter. The proposed matrix converter can boost voltage in the ratio of 1:5. The proposed high step up matrix converter with phase shifted output is simulated in MATLAB/Simulink environment and results are presented to verify the merits of proposed scheme.
