Abstract: The paper presents the simulation of the operation of 3 phase multilevel inverter using bidirectional chopper cells. The input provided is a DC supply of 12V which is further distributed into two 6V supplies. To convert DC into AC, configuration of Bidirectional Chopper cell are used two in each phase. Thus 3 phases are working simultaneously to give a 3 phase AC supply using the concept of Multilevel Inverters. . The hardware is broken down into Main and Driver circuits where the main circuit includes the switching circuitry and the driver board comprises of the triggering circuitry.
Keywords: Multilevel Inverter, Bidirectional Chopper, Main circuit, Driver circuit.
