Features
DC side is constant voltage, low impedance (voltage
source, or bulk cap)
AC side voltage is square wave or quasi-square wave.
AC side current is determined by the load.
Anti-parallel diodes are necessary to provide energy
feedback path.

The current conducting path is determined by the
polarity of load voltage and load current. (This is true
for analysis of many power electronics circuits.)
