<p>The multilevel convertor includes capacitors (C1,C2...,Cn) for each of its cells. The capacitors have nominally charge voltages proportional to their row in the convertor. The convertor also includes devices (VMO1,VMO2...,VMOn) designed to evaluate the average voltage at the terminals of each of the capacitors (C1,C2...,Cn), and devices (VE1,VE2...,VEn) for monitoring, for each of the capacitors (C1,C2...,Cn), the eventual difference between the evaluated average charge voltage and the nominal average voltage of the capacitor, and to provide a corresponding difference signal (VEC1,VEC2...,VECn). The convertor also has correction control devices (BT,EC1,EC2...,ECn), receiving the difference signal and controlling as a consequence, a temporary coupling between two capacitors, with the aim of reducing the voltage difference.</p> |
