The ANPC (Active Neutral Point Clamped) topology was initially proposed to overcome the unequal loss distribution among the NPC (Neutral Point Clamped) converter power devices. This goal depends deeply on the PWM strategy that is controlling the converter. In this paper, the thermal behavior of the ANPC converter is firstly analyzed. The actual issue is the unequal junction device temperature distribution...
