In this paper, a series Z-source inverter based on switched inductors cell is proposed for the first time. This inverter is able to increase the voltage gain in comparison to the conventional Z–source inverters in additon to solve the ST (shoot-through) state’s problems. In this inverter, the value of voltage gain is increased by increasing the number of used diodes and inductors in the switche...

This paper presents the implementation of Single Phase 7 level Multilevel DC link (MLDCL) Inverter with Half Bridge Cell topology. For N level inverter, (N-1)/2 half bridge cells are required with the same number of voltage sources. In this inverter topology, 3 Half Bridge Cells are used along with 3 voltage sources, each have 100V DC. These half bridges are connected in series to form a Multil...

Integration of fuel cell stack with an inverter is complex in nature. A number of factors have to be taken into account in designing the inverter as well as during the integration. One of these factors is ripple current which could affect the life of the fuel cell stack if there is fuel and/or oxidant starvation. In this paper an inverter topology is investigated which significantly reduces or ...
