A three-level photovoltaic inverter pulse width modulation method and a three-level photovoltaic inverter pulse width modulator. The method includes: when it is detected that potential safety hazards exist in a three-level photovoltaic inverter, switching the pulse width modulation mode of the three-level photovoltaic inverter into a 13-vector space vector pulse width modulation mode, to solve the fault or abnormal problems in the three-level photovoltaic inverter such as midpoint potential offset or excessively large common mode leakage current formed when the ground stray capacitance of a photovoltaic assembly is large, wherein according to the 13-vector SVPWM mode, 12 short vectors in 27 on-off state vectors of the three-level photovoltaic inverter are abandoned, and only six long vectors, six middle vectors and three zero vectors are reserved.

Three-level photovoltaic inverter pulse width modulation method and modulator

A method and a device for generating PWM pulses for an inverter are provided. The three-phase inverter's characteristic of including high frequency complementary switches is used. Only three PWM peripheral units of a DSP control unit are used to output PWM high frequency signals, and a detection control unit determine for each phase two currently high frequency complementary switches according to the states of detected level signals outputted by a preset number of GPIO interfaces. The PWM high frequency signals are distributed for each phase to one of the two switches, and the PWM high frequency signals are inversed and then sent to the other one of the two switches. In addition, the states of other switches are maintained unchanged according to a preset correspondence between states of switches of a multi-level inverter and outputted level signals in different switching periods.
