Abstract

Multilevel inverter arrangement consists of semiconductor switches for triggering purpose. In this paper modeling of five-level inverter is carried out using different semiconductor switches such as MOSFET, IGBT and GTO. MATLAB/Simulink software is used for modeling and simulation of multilevel inverter. Output waveforms for load voltage of inverter are obtained for different semiconductor switches.
