Abstract

A five level inverter comprises six switch tubes, two inductors, four capacitor units and two reverse current preventing devices. The common terminal of the third capacitor unit and the fourth capacitor unit is connected with the common terminal of the first capacitor unit and the second capacitor unit. The third capacitor unit and the fourth capacitor unit are used as the output filter circuit of the inverter, and the common terminal of the third capacitor unit and the fourth capacitor unit is used as the midpoint of the DC bus.
