Abstract
A novel topological family of multi-level inverters with flyback high frequency link is proposed in this study. The inverters can transfer high DC voltage into regulated sinusoidal voltage with low total harmonic distortion (THD). The circuit configuration consists of high DC input voltage, DC-link capacitors, novel multi-level conversion unit, high frequency flyback transformer, cyclo-converter, output filter capacitor and AC load. This topological family includes diode-clamp type full-wave mode, hybrid-clamp half-bridge mode, multi-end mode and improved multi-end mode. To achieve reliable multi-level inversion and overcome DC-link capacitor voltages unbalance, multi-carrier modulation and DC-link capacitor voltage balancing strategy are presented. In addition, steady principle and AC small-signal model are analysed. Simulation and experimental results are given to prove that the novel flyback high frequency isolated multi-level inverters have the following advantages such as the high frequency electrical isolation, the bi-directional power flow, the two-stage power conversion (DC-high frequency AC (HFAC) - low frequency AC (LFAC)), the lower voltage stress of power switches and the low THD of output voltage.
