Abstract :
A new multilevel converter topology is proposed in this paper. It reduces the component quantity and overcomes several disadvantages of existing multilevel converter topologies. The proposed converter is flexible in design and the output voltage levels are easily expanded. The detailed topology, its advantages, critical techniques, simulation and experimental results are presented in this paper.
