Abstract
This paper describes the characteristics of a new multilevel inverter that reduces the number of element in which the current flows through in comparison with a conventional NPC-type inverter. Digital control by the microprocessor was realized by simplification of the control block and the switch of the signal wave. A high efficiency more than 98% was identified by an experiment.
