摘要
This article proposes a single-stage, seven-level (7L), switched-capacitor-based grid-connected inverter architecture with a common ground feature. This topology has the ability to boost the output voltage up to three times the input voltage. The proposed topology can diminish the leakage current in grid-connected photovoltaic (GC-PV) applications, and its capacitor voltages are self-balanced without any additional control strategies. The different operating modes are described in detail with their related mathematical expressions. The design of passive components and a detailed power loss analysis are presented. The merits of the proposed structure are demonstrated using a detailed comparative assessment. The grid-connected operation of the proposed inverter structure is simulated in the MATLAB/Simulink environment, and the results are presented. The laboratory prototype of 935 W is built and analyzed to validate the performance of the proposed structure.
