A New Reduced Switch Seven-Level Triple Boost Switched Capacitor Based Inverter

This paper proposes a new reduced switch count seven-level triple boost inverter based on switched capacitor technique. The proposed topology has fewer number of components and the ability balancing voltage across capacitors. structure is very simple can be easily extended to higher levels. generalized for levels presented. level shifted pulse width modulation approach used evaluate topology. In addition, design capacitors power loss calculation semiconductor switches are provided. compared with state-of-art topologies demonstrate its superior performance. Further, thermal modelling done in PLECS calculate losses efficiency. Finally, this 7-level simulated using MATLAB/Simulink tested experimental prototype performance verification results included.
