A circuit for controlling a DC voltage source current includes a low-voltage DC bus capacitor, a first set of power electronics half-bridge units, a first set of branch circuit inductors, and a first set of DC switches. All of the first set of power electronics half-bridge units are connected in parallel between a positive pole and a negative pole of a low-voltage DC bus and are also connected in parallel with the low-voltage DC bus capacitor, an output neutral point of each power electronics half-bridge unit is connected in series with one of the first set of branch circuit inductors and one of the first set of DC switches to form one of a first set of current-sharing branch circuits, and each power electronics half-bridge unit and the corresponding current-sharing branch circuit are used to be connected with a DC voltage source to form a DC voltage source branch circuit.

Circuit for controlling current of direct current voltage source and control method

The present disclosure provides a multi-level converter with triangle topology and control method thereof, related to the technical field of multi-level converters. In the converter, n DC capacitors connected in series form a vertical edge of a triangle and are as a DC bus, n switching tubes connected in series form a bevel edge of the triangle, switching tubes each connected between a neutral point of the DC bus corresponding to each layer and a point for connecting the switching tube on the bevel edge form a horizontal edge. Each time the layer is expanded by one, the number of levels increases by one. When a voltage across each capacitor is E, an AC output terminal Xn may output a total of n+1 levels.
