A single-phase four-level rectifying power supply based on a pseudo totem pole structure comprises eight full-
control power switch tubes S1 to S8, diodes D1 to D6, inductors L1 and L2 and capacitors C1 to C3. One end of the
alternating current power supply ug is connected with the
anode of the
diode D5 and the
cathode of the
diode D6 at an end point n; the other end of the
AC power supply ug is connected with one end of an
inductor L1 and one end of an
inductor L2; the other end of the
inductor L1 is respectively connected with the
anode of the
diode D1 and the drain
electrode of the switch tube S1 at an end point a; the other end of the inductor L2 is connected with the
cathode of the diode D2 and the source
electrode of the switching tube S4 at the end point b. The
cathode of the diode D1 is respectively connected with the drain
electrode of the switching tube S3, the cathode of the diode D5, the
anode of the
capacitor C1 and the anode of the load RL at an end point p; the source electrode of the switching tube S2 is connected with the anode of the diode D2, the anode of the diode D6, the cathode of the
capacitor C3 and the cathode of the load RL at an end point m. According to the
rectifier, the pseudo totem pole rectification technology and the four-level topology technology are fused, so that the stress of a switch tube can be effectively reduced, the
overall efficiency of a
system is improved, and a bridge arm direct connection phenomenon does not exist.
