Z-source neutral-point-clamped (NPC) inverters have been recently presented as a buck-boost three-level inverter. In this paper five new grid-connected distributed generation (DG) systems are proposed using z-source NPC inverters. With the proposed systems, output power of two separate DG systems such as photovoltaic (PV) arrays and fuel cell (FC) stacks are extracted and delivered to the grid. Since...
This paper introduces the generalized multi-cell converter topology. Its modular construction allows it to be scalable to different voltage and power levels. Several variations of this converter are introduced in this paper. Proposed converter offers a multi-input structure allowing it to integrate power from an AC network, a DC network, and/or a multitude of lower voltage distributed sources. Main...
This paper proposes a novel DC-DC converter: the DC-DC multilevel voltage multiplier (MVM). An Nx MVM can be built with two switches, 2N-2 diodes and 2N-2 capacitors, free of magnetic components. It is based on the multilevel converters principle and designed for unidirectional power transfer applications. Each device blocks one voltage level, then high voltage converters can be synthesized with low...
