Abstract
A power converter system is provided and includes a first switch circuit configured to receive a first Direct Current (DC) voltage, the first switch circuit coupled to a second switch circuit having a positive connection and a negative connection to receive a second DC voltage. The power converter system further includes a first capacitor, coupled between the positive connection and a neutral point, a second capacitor, coupled between the negative connection and the neutral point, and an Alternating Current (AC) switch circuit coupled to the first capacitor and to the second capacitor. The power converter system includes a controller configured to maintain a substantially equal voltage level across the first capacitor and the second capacitor, the controller being coupled to the first switch circuit, the second switch circuit, and the AC switch. A method of controlling the power converter system is further disclosed.
