Abstract: The main concept of a multilevel converter is to achieve higher power to use a series of power semiconductor switches with several dc source to perform the power conversion by synthesizing a staircase voltage waveform. In this paper, 3- level and 5- level diode clamped inverter topologies and SPWM technique has been applied to formulate the switching pattern for inverter that minimizes the harmonic distortion at the output. A RL passive filter is also introduced for more improvement in results, performed in simulink.
