A two-switch high-performance current regulated DC/AC convertermodule

A high-performance current regulated single-phase DC/AC converter module is proposed in this paper. Its novel features include: a two-switch topology with no “shoot-through” paths, high input to-output voltage gain, low and constant switching frequencies, and practically instantaneous recovery from input or output transients. Moreover, by utilizing an inner filter capacitor current control loop the proposed module can maintain nearly perfect sinusoidal output voltages even with highly nonlinear loads. Furthermore, three-phase operation can be obtained easily by using three of these modules. Finally, the paper includes the analysis and design of the converter power and control circuits and the experimental evaluation of key predicted results
