A novel interleaved dual buck full-bridge three-level inverter (IDBFTI) is proposed for the grid-connected system in this paper. It retains the advantages of interleaved parallel technology for inverter as follows: reducing the output ripple current and the total harmonic distortion of the output current, increasing the power density of system, and reducing the current stress and thermal stress of power devices. Besides, it can solve the problem of zero sequence circulation current (ZSCC) in interleaved inverter system by the circuit structure, and it also has the advantages of no shoot-through problem, no reverse recovery of the body diode, and three-level output. The interleaved inverter circuits share two power-frequency switches, which are resized for each specific application, and it is easier to extend the system by improving current capability of the two switches. The working principle of this system is introduced in detail, and a 2-kW experimental prototype has been established and tested. Test results verify the principle and the excellent performance of IDBFTI. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
