Overview
Description
This solution is for digital control of photovoltaic power conditioners, UPS and industrial 3-phase DC/AC inverter power supplies. You can increase the system efficiency and reduce the size and weight of the filter reactors that cut harmonic components by applying a low-loss SiC power element and 3-level (T-type) circuit topology to the inverter circuit.

3-level inverter application effects
The PWM output voltage waveform of the 3-level inverter more closely approaches a sine wave.
Image
Comparison of the high-frequency components of the PWM output voltage
There are fewer harmonic components in the 3-level inverter output PWM voltage, resulting in smaller, lighter and lower cost filter reactors to cut the high harmonic components

40% reduction in reactor volume and weight for 3-Level (50 kHz) compared to 2-Level (20 kHz)
Image
Reduction of switching losses
The switching operation of the power components is performed at half the DC power supply voltage, effectively reducing switching losses and increasing efficiency
