Abstract: The maximum boost control method for a single-phase switched-boost inverter (SBI) and single-phase Z-source inverter (ZSI) is proposed in this paper. In the proposed method, the low frequency voltage is added to the constant voltage for generating the variable shoot-through time intervals. For improving the AC output quality of the inverter, an active power switch is used to replace one of the diodes in the single-phase SBI. The operating principles and circuit analysis using the proposed maximum boost control method for single-phase inverters are presented. Laboratory prototypes are built to verify the operation of the proposed pulse-width modulation (PWM) control method for both single-phase quasi-ZSI and single-phase quasi-SBI.
