IV. DIGITAL CONTROL TECHNIQUE IN H-BRIDGE MULTILEVEL
INVERTER
The JK fip-fop is a negative triggered device, which has
three inputs they are JK, and a CLK. on the negative edge or in
the falling edge the JK fip fop produces to outputs Q and Q!
Depending upon the falling truth Table in table Ir.

There are two side of driver control they are Active-low
And active-high control. In active-Iow control the FET is
c10sed when the control signal is low or O,and the FET remains
open when the signal is high or l.In active-high control the
control signal is opposite. When the control is used in a H
Bridge with two switches working in active-Iow and active
High control the opening and c10sing of the switch depends
upon the PWM signal along with the Enable signal, when the
enable signal is high the circuit remains open and doesn't
conduct
The digital control uses 4 fip fops they are JK fip fop1,
JK fip fop2, JK fip fop3, JK fip fop4 and the outputs are
(Q1,Q1 '),(Q2,Q2'),(Q3,Q3'),(Q4,Q4').we know that fip
fops are c10ck edge triggered instead of level triggered, the
fip fops are given a c10ck signal and the input for the JK fip
189
fop1 is given through the constant as l.the technique works as
a counter in this process to get a seven level output we need
n+2 bit counters. The output of JK fip fop1 and JK fip fop2
are made to operate in the first half cycle of the positive cyc1e
and in reverse in the second half of the positive cyc1e. In the
first half of the cyc1e it acts as a up counter as the steps starts
on increasing are done by Q3' in the second half of the cycle it
acts as a down counter as the steps starts on decreasing are
done by Q3.Q4 and Q4' has been used as the control bits and
they are also used to separate the positive and negative
switches.

Fig 4. Digilal conlrol in cascaded mullilevel inverler wilh R load
The proposed method uses two dc sources they are V dc and
V de/2, MATLAB software doesn't support counter directly so
we use JK fip fops and the output of which is given to the
AND or OR gates to generate the necessary gating pattern. We
do know that the output of logic gates is Boolean so to convert
Boolean function to double we use data conversion block. The
reason to use double as the conversion type is IGBT devices
accept fring signals in the form of double. In fg.6 fring
circuit we have 3 diferent sections they are counter section,
logic circuit and pulse separation. The counter counts from
0000 to 1111.Q3 and Q4 are used as control bits for the logic
circuit and pulse separation between positive and negative
pulses the various switching pattern in the circuit is gi yen as

Fig 13. Speed graph ofPWM multi level inverter
The speed graph of the PWM inverter is shown in fgure 13
and that of the digital graph is shown in Fig 14,the speed of the
PWM inverter with motor runs faster than that of the digital
control but the input to digital is very smooth so that the life of
the motor is beter compared to that of the PWM and speed
variation is smooth in digital but in PWM inverter its rough

VI. CONCLUSION
This deals with the both the cascaded and Digital control in
multilevel inverter the results shows that for the PWM the
output is fve level for the same number of switches and the
Digital control produces seven level output for the same
number of switches also the THD has been decreased
considerably in to about 10% between the two control
techniques. So the new control provides safe operating of the
devices compared to the other technique.
