Abstract
A direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) converter in accordance with an embodiment includes a battery array module, a battery control module and a polarity converter, wherein the battery array module and the magnetic converter are respectively coupled to the battery control module. The battery array module is used to receive DC signals. The battery array module is controlled by the battery control module to reconfigure and generate a multi-phase step signal. The multi-phase step signal is sent to the polarity converter. The multi-phase step signal is converted into an AC signal output by the polarity converter.
Claims16
A direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) converter, comprising:
- a battery array module having a current mode switching converter and used to receive a DC signal, wherein the battery array module comprises one or more multiple battery modules, and wherein a plurality of battery string modules in series formed by the one or more multiple battery modules are controlled by the current mode switching converter, such that the plurality of battery string modules are electrically connected in parallel to form the battery array module;
- a battery control module directly coupled to the battery array module having the current mode switching converter and used to control the battery array module having the current mode switching converter to reconfigure the DC signal from the battery array module and generate a multi-phase step signal;
- a signal compensating module having an operating unit and a signal compensating unit, wherein a first signal is obtained by the operating unit to subtract a predetermined signal from the multi-phase step signal, and wherein the first signal compensated by the signal compensating unit is transmitted to the current mode switching converter of the battery array module to optimize the multi-phase step signal;
- and
- a polarity converter used to convert the multi-phase step signal from the battery control module into an AC signal output.
A control method for a direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC) converter, comprising:
- receiving a DC signal by using a battery array module having a current mode switching converter, wherein the battery array module comprises one or more multiple battery modules, and wherein a plurality of battery string modules in series formed by the one or more multiple battery modules are controlled by the current mode switching converter, such that the plurality of battery string modules are electrically connected in parallel to form the battery array module;
- reconfiguring the DC signal from the battery array module and generating a multi-phase step signal by controlling the battery array module having the current mode switching converter with a battery control module, wherein the battery control module having the current mode switching converter is directly coupled to the battery array module, wherein the DC to AC converter comprises a signal compensating module having an operating unit and a signal compensating unit, and wherein a first signal is obtained by the operating unit to subtract a predetermined signal from the multi-phase step signal;
- transmitting the first signal compensated by the signal compensating unit to the current mode switching converter of the battery array module to optimize the multi-phase step signal;
- and
- converting the multi-phase step signal from the battery control module into an AC signal output by a polarity converter.
