This　paper　proposes　a　new　topology　of　the　switched-capacitor　multilevel　inverter　(SCMLI)　for　photovoltaics　system,　which　can　eliminate　the　leakage　current.　In　the　proposed　topology,　the　capacitors　are　employed　as　a　virtual　DC　power　supply　to　boost　the　input　voltage.　Here,　all　capacitors　are　charging　equal　to　DC　source,　thus,　just　one　DC　source　is　needed　to　achieve　the　staircase　waveform.　In　this　structure　in　order　to　make　the　negative　levels,　the　capacitors　are　connected　to　the　output　in　reverse　polarity.　Thus,　the　H-bridge　circuit　which　is　used　in　traditional　SCMLI　to　build　zero　and　negative　voltage　levels　and　leads　a　variable　common　mode　voltage　is　removed.　Due　to　the　direct　connection　of　the　neutral　terminal　of　the　grid　to　the　negative　polarity　of　the　PV;　then　this　topology　can　eliminate　the　leakage　current.　In　addition,　the　topology　has　an　excellent　ability　to　path　the　reverse　current　as　well　as　an　acceptable　output　waveform　spectrum.　The　operating　states　of　all　components　and　loss　calculations　are　analyzed　and　formulated　accurately　as　well　as　simulated　by　using　MATLAB-SIMULINK　software.　To　confirm　the　performance　of　the　proposed　topology;　a　500　W　prototype　is　built　and　experimental　results　are　presented.
