Abstract
A hybrid topology power converter includes a three-level circuit module and a cascaded H-bridge circuit module. A control method includes the following steps. Firstly, a zero sequence component is injected into a total modulation wave, thereby generating a compensated total modulation wave. Then, a first voltage signal is generated according to the compensated total modulation wave. An H-bridge modulation wave is generated according to the compensated total modulation wave and the first voltage signal. A three-level driving signal is generated according to the first voltage signal, and an H-bridge driving signal is generated according to the H-bridge modulation wave. A duty cycle of at least one switch element of the three-level circuit module is adjusted according to the three-level driving signal. A duty cycle of at least one switch elements of the cascaded H-bridge circuit module is adjusted according to the H-bridge driving signal.
