The proposed inverter requires 12 switches, three diodes, one input dc source, and three capacitors. The requirement of less number of switches reduces the requirement of gate drivers, which enhances power density of converter. The second challenge in SC-MLI is to maintain self-voltage balancing across the capacitors. The self-voltage balancing capability becomes poor at low values of modulation index. The capacitors connected in proposed SC-MLI are capable to maintain the self-voltage balancing without requiring auxiliary circuits or complex control strategies. The operation of capacitors is self-balanced at all regions of modulation index values. The comparison of the proposed SC-MLI is carried out with state-of-art SC-MLIs discussed in the literature using the parameters like peak inverse voltage and total standing voltage. The switches connected in the proposed 13-level SC-MLI undergoes less voltage stress as compared to the SC-MLI configurations discussed in the literature. The proposed SC-MLI is highly competent to achieve good power quality and is capable to ensure voltage balancing of capacitors even at low values of modulation index. The validation of the proposed inverter topology is carried out using a laboratory prototype. The efficiency of the converter claimed using the simulation results is observed to be 96.2% while the efficiency evaluated using the experimental results is 94.1% at 500 W. � 1972-2012 IEEE.
