Generalized Multi cell Switched-Inductor
and Switched-Capacitor Z-Source Inverters
Traditional voltage-source inverter is limited by its only voltage step-down operation, while
current-source inverter is limited by its only current step-down mode. In order to add an
extra boosting flexibility while keeping the number of active semiconductors unchanged,
voltage-type and current-type Z-source inverters were earlier proposed. These new classes
of inverters are generally more robust and less sensitive to electromagnetic noises.
However, their boosting capabilities are somehow compromised by high component
stresses and poorer spectral performances caused by low modulation ratios. Their boosting
gains are, therefore, limited in practice. To overcome these shortcomings, the generalized
switched-inductor and switched-capacitor Z-source inverters are proposed, whose extra
boosting abilities and other advantages have already been verified in simulation and
experiment.
Modern power electronic applications, especially those directly connected to the grid,
usually require some voltage boosting. Traditional voltage-source inverters (VSIs) are
therefore not satisfactory since they can only step down voltages. To add boost
functionality, dc-dc boost converters can be placed before the VSIs. Alternatively, singlestage buck-boost inverters can be used like the Cuk, SEPIC and other similar dc-ac inverters.
However, these inverters do not have been intensive follow-up researched. On the contrary,
research in another buck-boost inverter, named as Z-source inverter has been proposed.
Despite the aforementioned merits, the aforementioned Z-source inverter topologies also
show the following drawbacks: 1) capacitor voltage stress is increased with the increase of
shoot-through duty ratio, thus high-voltage or large capacity capacitors should be used,
which may result in large volume, high cost, and reducing the life span of system; 2)
inductor current stress is large, and this characteristic may also lead to large volume and
high cost; 3) it regulates boost factor only by adjusting the shoot-through duty ratio, and
boost factor is very small with short shoot-through zero state.

To solve the aforesaid drawbacks in aforementioned Z-source inverter, a new Z-source
inverter topology is presented with extended SL network and unique Γ-shaped impedance
network without transformer. The operation principle and comparison with the classical ZSI
and SL-ZSI reveal the merits of the proposed topology, which are also verified in both
simulation and experiment.

Conclusion:
To understand the elementary SL topology, the generalized SL and SC Z-source inverters are
derived. Their operating principles are explained with their gains proven to be much higher
than those of the traditional Z-source inverters. Their modulation ratios can be set higher to
better utilize their dc links, and to keep their component stresses lower. Simulations have
confirmed these advantages, and experiments have verified the inverter practicalities.
