Development of a novel PWM controller for flying capacitor 5-level inverter

This paper introduces a pulse width modulation (PWM) controller based on FPGA and DSP for flying capacitor 5-level inverters. The controller employs a direct PWM method and bias error control to solve the balance control problem of the flying capacitor voltage and the complexity of finding redundant switching states. The control strategy is simple and easily understood. This paper discribes the PWM control strategy principle, the controller design, and the experimental results. The harmonic of the output voltage and current is low. The experimental results also verify the validity of the balance control of the flying capacitor voltage.
