Abstract

See full text

A system for controlling a power converter, the system configured to control at least two consecutive instances of closure of pairs of controlled switches including a bottom switch and a top switch. A measurement mechanism can measure, prior to a transition between closing of one pair of controlled switches and closing of another pair of controlled switches, electric potential at a connection point for at least two arms in which the controlled switches are affected by the transition. A comparison mechanism compares the measured potentials and a selection mechanism can select the top switch of the arm with a lowest measured electric potential and the bottom switch of the arm with a highest measured electric potential. A controller can control closing of the controlled switches selected during at least one additional time period around the transition.
