Popis: For grid-connected applications, Multi-level Inverters (MLI) are mostly used, similarly to join the various RES to the grid as well as to satisfy the load demand MLIs are mostly preferred. This article presents a fuel cell-based high-gain boost converter with a single-phase five-level inverter controlled by CB-PWM techniques. A fuel cell produces a very less amount of power so to boost-up the fuel cell power to the essential power level with the help of a high-gain boost converter. The boost converter produces the required DC output power and that power is a converter to required AC power by using a single-phase five-level inverter. The MLI switches are controlled with the help of MC-PWM techniques and observe the inverter behavior in terms of THD, output ripples, and settling time. The entire work is done in MATLAB/Simulink tool as well as design a small prototype model by using the FPGA board.
