Abstract: AC-AC converter employs bidirectional switches which can be used for AC-AC conversion. The main advantage of the matrix converter is regenerating energy to utility favor its usage in many applications. In this paper, we have designed a Matrix converter with buck and boost mode and a Sine wave Pulse Width Modulation technique for reducing harmonic content in the output of matrix converter. Domestic Induction cooking is the trending and favorable technology because of its high efficiency and safety factor. The induction cooking operation requires high frequency which can be impacted by the three leg inverter configuration in existing system. The three leg converter configuration is suffered from the power loss because of the DC link. The lack of DC link in between the rectifying and inverting mode of matrix converter favors its implementation in the domestic cooking. The automation of cooking is done by arduino, which reduces the manpower and it makes the system user friendly.9.
