Features
DC side is constant voltage, low impedance
(voltage source, or bulk cap)
AC side voltage is square wave or quasi-square
wave.
AC side current is determined by the load.
Anti-parallel diodes are necessary to provide
energy feedback path.

The current conducting path is
determined by the polarity of load
voltage and load current. (This is true

circuits.)

4.3 Current source inverter (CSI)
Features
Power
DC side is constant
current, high impedance
(current source, or large
inductor)
AC side current is quasisquare wave. AC side
voltage is determined by the load.
No anti-parallel diodes are needed. sometimes series
diodes are needed to block reverse voltage for other
power semiconductor devices.

Switching frequency is a little higher
than the resonant frequency so that the
load becomes capacitive and load
current is leading voltage to realize
load commutation.

Multi-level Inverters
Ways to deal with higher voltage and achieve better
waveform
– Series connection of multiple converters
– Series connection of multiple switch devices
Power
Major type of multi-level inverters
– Neutral point clamped multi-level inverter
– Flying-capacitor multi-level inverter
– Cascade H-bridge( series connected H-bridges)
In broad sense, previously discussed series
connection of multiple inverters is also called multilevel inverter.
In narrow sense, only NPC and FC structures are
called multi-level inverters.
