A cost-effective solution to power the gate drivers of multilevel inverters using the bootstrap power supply technique

Multilevel inverters are traditionally seen as a step forward in DC/AC conversion, providing more output voltage levels, better quality of the generated waveform and lower switching losses than the two-level and can process higher voltages with a given forced commutated switch technology. There are...
