In this paper, a new soft switching three phase inverter with a quasi-resonant dc-link is presented. The proposed inverter has a dc-link switch and an auxiliary switch. The inverter switches are turned on and off under zero voltage switching condition and all auxiliary circuit switches and diodes are also soft switched. The control utilizes PWM and the auxiliary switch does not require an isola...

In this paper, modeling and simulation of a three-phase inverter (DC-to-AC converter) is studied by means of graphical tools, SaberSketch and Advanced Continuous Simulation Language / Graphic Modeller (ACSL/GM). First, SaberSketch simulation of the inverter with ideal switches is presented. Then, the simulation is repeated by replacing the ideal switches with built-in BJT (Bipolar Junction Tran...

This paper proposes a single-phase seven-level inverter for grid-connected photovoltaic systems, with a novel pulse width-modulated (PWM) control scheme. Three reference signals that are identical to each other with an offset value that is equivalent to the amplitude of the triangular carrier signal were used to generate the PWM signals. The inverter is capable of producing seven levels of outp...

This paper deals single phase 27-level multilevel inverter topology for DER’s-based DC/AC conversion system. This work mainly focuses on cascaded MLI using three unequal dc sources in order to produce twenty seven-level output. In this study, a high step-up converter is introduced as a front-end stage to improve the conversion efficiency of conventional boost converters and to stabilize the out...

The three-phase four-leg inverter can produce balanced voltages even with unbalanced loads, yet its controller design is quite complicated. Based on the analysis on time domain equations, a decoupled sequence control strategy for the three-phase four-leg inverter in a low-voltage network is proposed. A negative sequence controller and a zero sequence controller are added to the control strategy...
