    摘要: Provided is a modular multilevel converter and a method for synchronizing outputs of sub-modules of the converter. The modular multilevel converter includes sub-modules connected in parallel, and each sub-module generates an output. The modular multilevel converter also includes a controller that is communicatively coupled to the sub-modules. The controller controls a flow of one or more synchronizing signals between the plurality of sub-modules, such that each sub-module receives the synchronizing signals in opposite directions simultaneously, thereby controlling a synchronization of the outputs generated by the sub-modules.

    摘要: A drive device for a rotary electric machine includes a first inverter that has high-potential side and low-potential side switching elements corresponding to phases of the rotary electric machine and is connected to a DC power supply, a second inverter that has high-potential side and low-potential side switching elements corresponding to the phases and is connected to the first inverter via a connection line, and a controller that controls the first and second inverters so that if a percentage modulation expressed by a fundamental wave component amplitude of a phase winding voltage and a DC voltage is a threshold value or more, percentage modulations of output phase voltages of the first and second inverters are more than 1, and so that a phase difference between a phase of the output phase voltage of the first inverter section and that of the second inverter section changes depending on the percentage modulation.
