Abstract

Two types of asymmetric switched-capacitor five-level single-phase DC-AC inverters are presented based on the clamping half-bridge circuit and the output half-bridge circuit. Furthermore, the switches of the two proposed circuits can be driven by half-bridge gate drivers and can be modularized. Moreover, the detailed analysis of the operation principle, design of clamping capacitor and output filter of these two inverters are presented. Finally, the feasibility and validity of the proposed structures are verified by PSIM-simulated results and experimental results using FPGA as the control kernel, respectively.
