Abstract:
A dual submodule is created for a modular multilevel converter, whereby the dual submodule has two interconnected submodules, whereby each submodule has an asymmetrical half-bridge circuit with two parallel bridge branches, which are connected between a first and a second terminal connection of the submodule, whereby each bridge branch is formed from a series circuit of a power semiconductor switch, and a diode, whereby the power semiconductor switch is allocated to an antiparallel free-wheeling diode, and has a capacitor, which is connected in parallel with the asymmetrical half-bridge circuit between the first and the second terminal connections of the module. The submodules are connected to each other via their AC terminals to form the dual submodule. Further, a modular multilevel converter is created, comprising a number of such dual submodules in each of its converter branches.

Claim (Index 7):
The dual submodule according to  claim 1 , wherein all of the diodes and free-wheeling diodes are aligned in the forward direction from the second to the first terminal connections of each submodule.
