Abstract :
We report on implementation of single-phase seven levels DC/AC converter on ASE-50 solar modules, using half-bridges to generate upper levels. Control system implemented with Microchip PIC18 microcontroller. Genetic algorithm approach used to find switching angles to minimize output signal THD.
