A Novel and Simple Single-Phase Modulator for the Nested Neutral-Point Clamped (NNPC) Converter

Abstract

The nested neutral-point clamped (NNPC) converter is a four-level converter topology for medium-voltage applications with interesting properties such as operating over a wide range of voltages (2.47.2KV) without the need for connecting the power semiconductor in series, high quality output voltage, and less number of components in compare to other classical four-level topologies. The control and balance of the flying capacitors (FCs) of the …
