Abstract
A single-phase hybrid multilevel inverter capable of producing a higher number of output voltage levels using fewer power switches and DC voltage sources compared to existing multilevel inverters. The levels are synthesized by switching the DC voltage sources in series/parallel combinations. An auxiliary circuit is introduced to double the number of levels by creating an intermediate step in between two levels. In addition, a zero level is introduced to overcome the inherent absence of this level in the original circuit. To improve the total harmonic distortion, a hybrid modulation technique is utilized. A 300 W, a thirteen level multilevel inverter (including the zero level) was designed and constructed. The circuit was tested with a no-load, resistive load and resistive-inductive load. The experimental results closely match simulated and mathematical analyses.
