Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of three-level converter technology, and in particular to an interleaved parallel three-level three-switch rectifier topology circuit. Background Technology

[0002] Three-level converters, as the simplest multilevel converters, have pointed the way for the development of high-capacity converters. Three-level converters offer advantages such as low switching losses, low voltage stress, good output harmonic characteristics, and low filter component requirements, gradually replacing two-level converters and finding widespread application in low-to-medium voltage, high-power applications such as industrial power supplies, electric vehicles, photovoltaic power generation, and rail transportation. The Vienna rectifier topology, a related technology, consists of four diodes and one power switch forming a bidirectional switch. Another Vienna rectifier topology improves upon the traditional bidirectional switch by replacing it with two back-to-back power switches. While retaining the advantages of the Vienna topology, it utilizes high-frequency modulation to reduce filter size and increase system power density. Due to the high modularity of interleaved parallel three-level rectifiers, which can improve inverter current output capability, interleaved parallel three-level Vienna rectifiers are widely used in low-to-medium voltage, high-power applications.
