Abstract

Multi-level technology was introduced ten years ago. However, this technology is rarely applied to direct AC/AC converters. A three-level AC chopper is proposed, which is a multi-level direct AC/AC converter applied to high power conversion, and utilizes more voltage levels to form output voltage and decrease the harmonic content of output waveform. The detail operation principles are discussed, and a comprehensive analysis about the output voltage frequency structure is given. The analysis results of output voltage frequency structure can also be used in normal AC chopper. Experimental results on a prototype are provided to valid the proposed circuit.
