Abstract

A current limiting control method for a three-level inverter, comprising the following steps: S. when a current output from a bridge arm is greater than or equal to a current limiting threshold and a received overcurrent signal is enabled, first turning off the main switch transistors and then turning off the auxiliary switch transistors; S. when the current output from the bridge arm drops to lower than the current limiting threshold and the received overcurrent signal is disabled, turning on the auxiliary switch transistors; S. when the received overcurrent signal is disabled and a next PWM effective edge of the main switch transistors arrives, turning on the main switch transistors. The present invention relates also to a current limiting control device for a three-level inverter. By implementing the present invention, it is possible to ensure voltage waveform quality and reduce switching loss.
