- Description
- The conventional multilevel inverter necessitates more active switching devices and high dc-link voltages. To minimalize the employment of switching devices and dc-link voltages, a novel topology has been proposed. In this paper, a novel minimum switch multilevel inverter is established using six switches and two dc-link voltages in the proportion of 1: 2. In addition, the proposed topology is proficient in making seven-level voltages by appropriate gate signals. The PWM signals were produced using several inverted sine carriers and a single trapezoidal reference. When compared to other existing inverters, this configuration needs fewer components, as well as fewer gate drives. Furthermore, this module can generate a negative level without the use of a supplementary circuit such as an H-Bridge. As a result, overall cost and complexity are greatly reduced. The proposed minimum switch multilevel inverter operation is validated through simulations followed by experimental results of a prototype. 2022 Arun Vijayakumar et al.
