This paper focuses on an implementation of new topology which can synthesize multi-level output voltage at the load terminals. The proposed inverter consists of two main parts; level generation part and polarity generation part. Level generation part is responsible for generating voltage levels at its end while; polarity generation part is a traditional H-bridge which is used to provide inversion of the output voltage levels. Single-phase seven-level inverter has been presented from the proposed multilevel inverter. This topology offers reduced number of switching components compared with many recent available topologies particularly for high number of levels. Due to the multi-level output voltage, low total harmonic distortion (THD), less circuit complexity, less cost and high efficiency can be obtained. A conventional PI controller is used for load voltage regulation to obtain output voltage near to sinusoidal. Computer-aided using the dSPACE_CP1103 controller and experimental setup are carried out to provide the validity and effectiveness of the proposed inverter.
