    Ragunathan Narayanan
    This paper proposes a novel coupled inductor based current-fed switched inverter (Trans-CFSI) topology for low voltage renewable energy systems. Unlike traditional voltage source inverters, the Trans-CFSI can achieve high voltage step-up from inputs like solar and fuel cells. It utilizes a shoot-through state in its single-stage design to boost output voltage without needing dead times between switching signals. An experimental prototype was built to validate the Trans-CFSI, demonstrating a 220V AC output from a 52V DC input.

    Coupled Inductor Based Current-Fed Switched Inverter for


    Low Voltage Renewable Interface

    This paper presents a novel coupled inductor based high boost inverter topology which can
    be utilized in low voltage renewable systems where high voltage step-up is needed to
    interface with 110 Vt220 V AC systems. The proposed inverter possesses high boost ability
    with superior EMI immunity compared to a traditional voltage source inverter (VSI). Unlike
    the traditional VSI, the proposed inverter does not need dead time circuit for its switching
    signals as it utilizes shoot-through state of the inverter in its single-stage configuration.
    Insertion of shoot-through state also helps it to achieve high boost operation essential for
    renewable energy applications. The proposed inverter is derived from Current-Fed Switched
    Inverter topology. Apart from topology derivation, this paper describes the steady state
    analysis of the inverter and establishes the relation between input, DC-link, and AC output.
    An experimental prototype is built to validate the proposed inverter circuit. A 220 V (RMS)
    AC is obtained from 52 V DC input to demonstrate its boost mode of operation.

    Voltage source inverters are widely used in UPS, motor drives, grid connected and stand-
    alone renewable systems, etc. The main limitations of traditional VSI are:

    1. The output AC voltage cannot be more than its input DC voltage as VSI is a buck inverter.
    Due to this reason a DCDC boost converter stage is needed prior to the VSI to achieve step-
    up DC-AC inversion when the input DC voltage is limited like in the case of solar PV, fuel cell,
    etc. Commercially available solar PV panel voltage ranges from 12 V to 48 V typically
    whereas for fuel cells, it is typically between 24 V to 56 V. For this reason, a high step-up
    inversion is needed to connect the renewable sources to 110 V / 240 V AC systems which
    cannot be obtained from a VSI.

    2. The upper and lower switching devices of any leg of the VSI cannot be turned on
    simultaneously thus requiring for a dead-time circuit which in turn contributes to waveform
    distortion. Although, adding dead-time in the switching signals cannot alleviate the chances
    of mis-gating or shoot through due to spurious signals or EMI noise

    Conclusion:
    This paper proposed a coupled inductor based high boost inverter, named Trans-CFSI, which
    exhibits improved EMI noise immunity similar to the ZSI, SBI etc. The high gain of the
    inverter is obtained by the transformer action of the coupled inductor and insertion of
    shoot-through state. In this paper the development of Trans-CFSI topology is described in
    details along with its steady-state characteristics and PWM switching scheme. The proposed
    inverter is tested on a laboratory prototype and verified. The inverter is also tested for EMI
    and DC-bus fault which shows that the inverter shows EMI immunity and can sustain DC-bus
    fault.
