voltage source inverters produce a voltage or a current

he voltage source inverters produce a voltage or a current with levels either 0 or ±V dc they are known as two level inverters. To obtain a quality output voltage or a current waveform with a minimum amount of ripple content, they require high switching frequency. In high power and high voltage applications, these two level inverters, however, have some limitations in operating at high frequency.

In high power and high voltage
applications, these two level inverters,
however, have some limitations in
operating at high frequency.

3. MULTI-LEVEL INVERTER
y
The multi-level inverter is to synthesize
a near sinusoidal voltage from several
levels of dc voltages.
y
As number of levels increases, the
synthesized output waveform has more
steps, which provides a staircase wave
that approaches a desired waveform .
y
Also, as steps are added to waveform,
the harmonic distortion of the output
wave decreases, approaching zero as the
number of voltage levels increases

4. TYPES OF MULTI-LEVEL
INVERTER
y
The Multi-level inverters can be
classified into three types.
y
1. Diode –clamped Multi-level inverter
y
2. Flying –capacitor Multi-level inverter
y
3. Cascade Multi-level inverter

5. Diode-clamped Multi –level
inverter
¾Extension of NPC
¾Based on concept of using diodes to limit
power devices voltage stress
¾Structure and basic operating principle
ƒConsists of series connected capacitors that divide DC bus
voltage into a set of capacitor voltages
ƒA DCMI with nl number of levels typically comprises (nl-1)
capacitors on the DC bus
ƒVoltage across each capacitor is V
DC
/(nl-1)
( nl nodes on DC bus, nl levels of output phase voltage , (2nl-
1) levels of output line voltage)

6. Flying capacitor multilevel
inverter
¾Capable of solving capacitor voltage unbalance
problem and excessive diode count requirement in
DCMI
¾Also known as imbricated cell multilevel inverter
(capacitors are arranged to float with respect to
earth)
¾Structure and basic operating principle
ƒEmploys separate capacitors precharged to
[(nl-1)/(nl-1)xVDC], [(nl-2)/(nl- 1)xVDC] …{[nl-(nl-1)]/[nl-1]xVDC}
ƒSize of voltage increment between two capacitors defines size of
voltage steps in ICMI output voltage waveform

7. Cascade H-bridge
¾Referred to as cascaded-inverters with Separate
DC Sources (SDCs)or series connected H-bridge
inverters
¾Structure and basic operating principle
ƒConsists of (nl–1)/2 or h number of single-phase H-bridge inverters
(MSMI modules)
ƒMSMI output phase voltage
Vo = Vm1 + Vm2 + …….. Vmh
Vm1 : output voltage of module 1
Vm2 : output voltage of module 2
Vmh : output voltage of module h
xStructure of a single-phase nl-level MSMI
