Basic Z-Source Inverter (ZSI) Control by Using Arduino UNO

This project is an experiment and learn basic about Z-source inverter circuit behavior. Using an Arduino UNO control board to stabilize the output voltage and current protection of the Power MOSFET. In this experiment, a 13.8V/5A Power supply was used to power the Z-source inverter circuit, and 15V/2A to Power the Arduino UNO control board and the opto-isolator gate driver. From this experiment the Z-source inverter can supply 30 watts of Power continuous.
