A New Single Phase Single Switched-Capacitor Based Nine-Level Boost Inverter Topology With Reduced Switch Count and Voltage Stress

Based on the concept of switched-capacitor based multilevel inverter topology, a new structure for a boost multilevel inverter topology has been recommended in this paper. The proposed topology uses 11 unidirectional switches with a single switched capacitor unit to synthesize nine-level output volt...
