The paper introduces a modified switched capacitor multilevel inverter with voltage boost capability. The suggested topology can be extended into symmetric and asymmetric configurations. Nearest-level modulation method is employed to generate high-quality output waveforms. The presented multilevel inverter is compared with the similar configurations by considering various criteria. Finally, to confirm the operation of the suggested topology, a laboratory scale of the suggested inverter is implemented and the results are given. https://joape.uma.ac.ir/article_2008_34aa56ccc7ea4215c90a3546ca96907b.pdf
