Abstract

See full text

A converter includes a first bridge arm, a second bridge arm, two switch units and a voltage clamp circuit. The first bridge arm includes a first switch unit and a second switch unit that are electrically coupled in series at an output terminal. The second bridge arm includes two voltage sources that are electrically coupled in series at a neutral point terminal. The two switch units are electrically coupled in series at a common connection terminal, and are arranged between the neutral point terminal and the output terminal. The voltage clamp circuit is electrically coupled to the output terminal, the common connection terminal, the neutral point terminal, and one of a positive input terminal or a negative input terminal, and the circuit is shared by the two switch units to clamp voltages across the two switch units.
