摘要： A three-phase inverter and a control method therefor are provided. Resonant capacitors are provided between the midpoints of three bridge arms and the positive and negative poles of a DC bus to constitute resonant units with output inductors, so as to establish a resonant network for the implementation of soft switching, without adding a switching transistor. Compared with the soft-switching of the three-phase inverter in the conventional technology, circuit devices are saved, the control process is simplified, and system hardware and software overheads are reduced. By controlling the three-phase inverter to operate in a continuous mode, the switching loss of the switching transistor and the conduction loss of a flyback diode in the switching transistor are reduced, the conversion efficiency is improved, the electromagnetic noise caused by the switching transistor is reduced, and high-quality grid currents are output.

摘要： A power supply system and a solar photovoltaic inverter, a DC/DC module and a rectification module. Since a power supply outputted from a solar panel is low-voltage power, the power supply at an output end of the solar panel can be directly supplied to a DC driving module and a DC side circuit. Since a power supply outputted from a main transformer is high-voltage power, the AC outputted from the main transformer can be directly supplied to an inverter driving module, a rectification driving module, and an AC side circuit, without additionally providing an auxiliary power supply for high-voltage isolation, namely, without additionally providing a switching circuit, a transformer, a second rectifier module, and a third rectifier module, thereby avoiding the noise and power consumption caused by frequent ON or OFF of the switching circuit, and reducing the cost.

摘要： A micro-inverter and a grid-tied output control method and device therefor. The micro-inverter comprises an inverter full-bridge circuit and an LC filter circuit. The LC filter circuit is grid-tied to a power grid by means of an output switch. The method comprises: obtaining a voltage amplitude, a frequency, and a phase of a voltage of the power grid by using phase locking; adjusting a power switching transistor driving the inverter full-bridge circuit to cause an output voltage of the micro-inverter to track the voltage of the power grid; and controlling the output switch to be switched on so that the micro-inverter operates normally. In the present application, before the output switch is turned off to grid-tie the micro-inverter, the power grid voltage is phase-locked and the output voltage of the micro-inverter is controlled to track the power grid voltage.

摘要： A three-phase grid-connected inverter, and a method and a device for controlling the three-phase grid-connected inverter are provided. The method is applied to a three-phase three-leg grid-connected inverter. A structure of the three-phase three-leg grid-connected inverter is improved, so that a filter capacitor (C1, C2, and C3) is connected to a negative electrode of a direct current input bus to form a harmonic bypass circuit. Inverter devices connected in parallel in the system operate stably without increase of inductance of an inductor (L1, L2, L3). In addition, the three-phase three-leg grid-connected inverter according to the present disclosure operates in a discontinuous mode of inductor current (iL1, iL2, and iL3). That is, in the process that a power switch transistor (Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4, Q5 and Q6) on bridge legs is turned on, the inductor current (iL1, iL2, and iL3) drops to zero.

摘要： A three-phase grid-connected inverter, a control system thereof and a control method therefor. The inverter is a three-phase three-leg grid-connected inverter, and a filter capacitor is connected to a negative electrode of a DC input bus to form a filter loop, so as to filter harmonic wave in the circuit, realizing high-quality grid-connected current at small power, without increasing an inductance value, so that the parallel inverter device in the system operates stably and thus is applicable to photovoltaic microinverters. Moreover, the three-phase three-leg grid-connected inverter operates in a discontinuous conduction mode, that is, in a switching cycle, the inductive current is reduced to 0, so that the switching loss of the three-phase three-leg grid-connected inverter is reduced.
