 Abstract   This paper compares a Three-Level Neutral Point Clamped Voltage Source Converter (3L-NPC VSC), a Three-Level Flying Capacitor Voltage Source Converter (3L-FLC VSC), a Four-Level Flying Capacitor Voltage Source Converter (4L-FLC VSC) and Nine-Level-Series Connected H-Bridge Voltage Source Converter (9L-SCHB VSC) on the basis of state-of-the-art 6.5kV, 4.5kV and 1.7kV IGBTs for a 4.16kV medium voltage converter. The design of the power semiconductors, the installed switch power, converter losses, the semiconductor loss distribution, modulation strategies and the harmonic spectra are compared in detail.
