Abstract:This work presents a non-isolated single-phase voltage-source inverter (VSI) topology using an autotransformer to provide an alternating current (AC) output voltage whose maximum peak value can be up to twice that obtained with the conventional half-bridge and full-bridge inverters. Prominent advantages include a simple structure with low component count, as well as the fact that both switches are connected to a same reference node, as there is no need for isolated driver circuitry. As a possible drawback, the… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
