Design and Validation of a Reduced Switching Components Step-Up Multilevel Inverter (RSCS-MLI)

A reduced switching components step-up multilevel inverter (RSCS-MLI) is presented in the paper. The basic circuit of the proposed MLI can produce 11 levels in the output voltage with a reduced number of switching components. The other features of the proposed circuit include a low value of voltage...
