A simple voltage converter based on LC network is capable of boosting and bucking the voltage level of input supply without any phase difference. The paper presents the working principle and elaborates performance evaluation of this converter in different operating conditions. The number of reactive components and switches used in the circuit is minimum. High speed MOSFET are used as bi-directional switch of the ac-ac converter and it is able to deliver smooth variable output voltage across the load without using any additional filter. The optimize use of the LC network helps to make the circuit simple, cost-effective and small size.
