A new circuit structure and control method for a high power interleaved dual-buck inverter are proposed. The proposed inverter consists of six switches, four diodes and two inductors, uses a dual-buck structure to eliminate zero-cross distortion, and operates in an interleaved mode to reduce the current stress of switch. To reduce the total harmonic distortion at low output power, the inverter is controlled using discontinuous-current-mode control combined with continuous-current-mode control. The experimental inverter had a power-conversion efficiency of 98.5% at output power = 1300 W and 98.3% at output power = 2 kW, when the inverter was operated at an input voltage of 400 VDC, output voltage of 220 VAC/60 Hz, and switching frequency of 20 kHz. The total harmonic distortion was < 0.66%, which demonstrates that the inverter is suitable for high-power dc-ac power conversion.

Abstract: The multilevel inverter is a power conversion device which is uses multiple dc sources to provide required alternating current level. It is can be used for medium to high power applications. This paper presents a 129 level asymmetrical cascaded Hbridge multilevel inverter with reduced switching components and higher THD. The proposed inverter uses multiple dc sources with voltage ratio 1:1:2:4:8:16:32. The proposed inverter uses voltage reference technique to control the switching components of the topology. The comparative analysis of 129 level ASCHBMLI and conventional inverter topologies have been presented. The main advantages of the proposed topology is lower switching components, lower losses, and lower THD without the need of filter. MATLAB/SIMULINK software is used to perform simulation and analyse the performance of the proposed topology.

A inverter is basically a device that usually converts DC to AC voltage without causing any power loss, applicable to only low to medium voltage applications. But in case of medium to high power applications, it has demerits like high switching losses, reduced cost and low efficiency. To overcome these demerits a Multilevel inverter applicable to high voltage and high-power applications which have low total harmonic distortion (THD) is introduced. This paper is mainly focused on seven-level inverter with five switches and four dc sources. with low total harmonic distortion, less switching loss without adding any complexity to the circuit. The switching topology is integrated with various SPWM techniques like Phase Disposition (PD), Phase Opposition Disposition (POD) and Anti Phase Opposition Disposition (APOD). For better performance of the inverter above three PWM techniques will be compared and analyzed to find the low THD configuration. The simulation of switching topology is done by MATLAB/Simulink.

Peak Current Mode Control

A boost power factor correction (PFC) in continuous conduction mode (CCM) by the digital peak current-mode control method with bifurcation control is discussed in this paper. The proposed method is used to prevent the inductor current bifurcation behavior, which is caused by sub-harmonic oscillation when the duty cycle is upon to 50 percent. The bifurcation behavior will increase the inductor current ripple and dissipation, then reduce the Power Factor (PF). Different from the ramp compensation signal performed with analog IC in some papers, a MCU is used to be the controller and also provides the digital compensation function in this paper. With the timer, ADC, PWM, and comparator which are built in the MCU, the necessary parameters will be measured without extra components and additional cost. The proposed method is based on those parameters. In this paper, the MATLAB/Simulink simulation results show the proposed method workable.

PurposeThe main purpose of this paper is to select appropriate voltage vectors in the switching techniques and, by selecting the proper voltage vectors, be able to achieve a DC link with the same outputs and a symmetric multi-level inverter. Design/methodology/approachThe proposed structure, a two-stage DC–AC symmetric multi-level inverter with modified Model Predictive Control (MMPC) method, is presented for Photovoltaic (PV) applications. The voltage of DC-link capacitors of the boost converter is controlled by MMPC control method to select appropriate switching vectors for the multi-level inverter. The proposed structure is provided for single-phase power system, which increases 65 V input voltage to 220 V/50 Hz output voltage, with 400 V DC link. Simulation results of proposed structure with MMPC method are carried out by PSCAD/EMTDC software. FindingsBased on the proposed structure and control method, total harmonic distortion (THD) reduces, which leads to lower power losses and higher circuit reliability. In addition, reducing the number of active switches in current path causes to lower voltage stress on the switches, lower PV leakage current and higher overall efficiency. Originality/valueIn the proposed structure, a new control method is presented that can make a symmetric five-level voltage with lower THD by selecting proper switching for PV applications.

A switched mode power supply (SMPS) with multiple outputs has been developed which satisfies the need of isolation of control circuit power supply and driver section power supply for a medium-voltage electrical drive. It means that there is no need of extra components for isolation. For this SMPS, fly-back converter topology along with current mode control method is selected and its performance is observed for line, load as well as cross regulation with other tests. This SMPS generates multiple outputs of +5 V, +24 V, +/- 15 V and five +24 V isolated output voltages.
