Abstract :
This paper presents a 25kW six-level Modular Multilevel Converter prototype. The designed prototype is an industrial power converter that can be used by the industry. The converter is shown together with a high-performance hardware platform control designed for large multilevel converters. The hardware platform is a custom platform based on Zynq-7000 System-On-Chip that provides high processing performance together with high-speed communications.
