Abstract :
A new parallel resonant notch DC link voltage source PWM inverter topology to obtain zero switching loss high switching frequency DC-AC power conversion is proposed. Analysis and simulation results of the new topology for a three phase PWM inverter induction-motor drive are presented. Significant features of the proposed topology are use of conventional PWM techniques, low device voltage stresses (1.1 p.u.), simple design and load independent operation of the resonant notch interface circuit
