A new quasi-parallel resonant DC link for soft-switching PWM inverters

摘要

A new quasi-parallel resonant DC-link inverter with the more flexible pulse-width-modulation (PWM) capability and easier control is proposed in this paper. With the addition of one coupling core and one diode, the circuit can be directly applied to the single/three-phase inverter to achieve the soft-switching action. For the proposed topology, it needs neither the help of the inverter switch devices nor the requirement of voltage/current sensors. Random duration of the zero DC-link voltage can be obtained, and the voltage stresses of the inverter switches can be maintained to the minimum. The relative analysis of the presented circuit has been performed and verified by the experiment.
