Experimental Comparison of Two-Level Full-SiC and Three-Level Si–SiC Quasi-Z-Source Inverters for PV Applications

The paper presents a comparative study of two solar string inverters based on the Quasi-Z-Source (QZS) network. The first solution comprises a full-SiC two-level QZS inverter, while the second design was built based on a three-level neutral-point-clamped QZS inverter with Silicon based Metal&#87...
