Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-level converter with a DC (direct current) capacitor assisted voltage-sharing circuit. The voltage-sharing circuit comprises a primary voltage-sharing circuit and a secondary voltage-sharing circuit; for the multi-level converter with N+1 levels and N DC capacitors, the primary voltage-sharing circuit comprises N / 2 inductance voltage-sharing basic circuits; a switching element SA1n and a switching element SA1 (n-1) are connected with a capacitor Cn and a capacitor C (n-1) in parallel and the central connection points between the switching elements and the capacitors are connected by an inductor LA1(n / 2), thus realizing the voltage-sharing of the capacitor Cn and the capacitor C (n-1); the secondary voltage-sharing circuit comprises N / 2-1 groups of inductance voltage-sharing basic circuits to realize the voltage-sharing of the capacitor C (n-1) and a capacitor C (n-2); and finally, the N DC capacitors C realize the equalization of all voltages. The multi-level converter is suitable for the voltage-sharing of any level, does not influence an existing main circuit and a control principle and ensures that a main circuit converter can realize power transmission of any power factor under the condition of any modulation depth. The invention also provides specific circuits of a five-level converter as well as a realization circuit for minimizing the number of the inductors and a control method thereof.
