Abstract
An MMC converter linked to a HVDC system and a sub-module are proposed. The sub-module includes: first and second power semiconductor switches serially connected in the same direction, each including a semiconductor switch and a diode connected in anti-parallel to the semiconductor switch; a capacitor parallelly connected to the first and second power semiconductor switches serially connected; a first terminal connected to a first node between the first and second power semiconductor switches; a second terminal connected to a second node between the second power semiconductor switch and the capacitor; a third power semiconductor switch of which a side is connected to the second node, the third power semiconductor switch including a semiconductor switch and a diode connected in anti-parallel to the semiconductor switch; and a third terminal connected to a terminal of an AC grid system and connected to the other side of the third power semiconductor switch.
