Abstract
Economical considerations dictate the choice of feed inductance and the consequent permissible ripple content in the feed current. Here, the current-source inverter circuit is analysed without assuming constant feed current. The effect of feed inductance on the feed current ripple and the rating of circuit components is discussed. Criterion for minimum inductance is evolved. Experimental results are presented.
