Abstract: A phase leg for a multilevel inverter includes a first direct current lead, an outer solid-state switch, an inner solid-state switch, and a midpoint-clamping device. The outer solid-state switch device is connected to the first direct current lead. The inner solid-state switch is connected in series with the outer solid-state switch. The midpoint-clamping device is a bi-directional current flow device connected between a second DC lead and a node between the inner and outer solid-state switches for reducing conduction losses associated with current flowing through the phase leg.

Abstract: A method of controlling an inverter includes receiving output voltage target waveforms for phases of an inverter, generating uncompensated midpoint duty cycle waveforms for the inverter phases, selecting an uncompensated midpoint duty cycle waveform for one of the inverter phases based on the magnitudes of the uncompensated midpoint duty cycle waveforms, and applying a compensation signal to the selected uncompensated midpoint duty cycle waveform. An inverter controller and inverter employ the method for generating switch command signals for solid-state switch devices of the inverter.

Abstract: A method of converting power includes receiving alternating current (AC) at the first phase leg set of a power conversion system having first and second phase legs sets connected by direct current (DC) leads. The first phase leg set rectifies the received AC power into DC power by switching outer switches of the first phase leg set into an off state. The DC lead conveys the DC power from the first phase leg set to the second phase leg set. The second phase leg set inverts the DC power into AC power.

Abstract: A method of controlling a rectifier includes receiving a gain factor, receiving a ramp interval, and generating a rectifier switch control voltage. The rectifier switch control voltage is an over-modulated rectifier switch control voltage generated by a pulse width modulator using the gain factor. The amount of over-modulation in the rectifier switch control voltage is decreased during the ramp interval for reducing transient voltage overshoot events at the start of active rectification.

Abstract: An electrical system includes a converter having an H-bridge. The H-bridge includes a first set of transistors electrically connected in series and a second set of transistors electrically connected in series. The first set and the second set of transistors are electrically connected in parallel. The H-bridge defines three available switching states such that a common mode voltage across the H-bridge at each switching state is zero. A method for reducing electromagnetic interference (EMI) in pulse-width modulation (PWM) converters includes diagonally switching transistors of the H-bridge. Diagonally switching the transistors of the H-bridge includes constraining available switching states of the H-bridge to only include the switching states with zero common-mode voltage such that common-mode voltage on an AC output side of the H-bridge is zero.
