One of the key parameters in designing a multi-level switched capacitor inverter is selecting the appropriate capacitor size for the structure being used. If the capacitor size is less than the correct and suitable value, the voltage ripple across the capacitor will increase.
In this paper, considering the nature of switched-capacitor inverters and their primary challenges, an 11-level structure with a boost factor of 2.5, along with reduced voltage and current stress, is proposed. This structure requires a single voltage source, 10 switches, 3 capacitors, and 2 diodes.
The works [24, 25, 26, 27] developed 13-level switched capacitor inverters which achieve a voltage gain of six with fewer components. Through the regular charging–discharging of the capacitor, the inverter proposed in can realize the self-balancing of capacitor voltages, but the voltage stress of the switches is high.
Another prominent feature of switched capacitor inverters is the self-voltage balancing of their capacitors. Unlike the FC-MLIs, this type of inverter does not need a voltage sensor and controller to balance the capacitors' voltage .
