Every algorithm for grid-connected inverter operation is based on the estimation or direct measurement of grid voltage frequency and phase angle. The detection method used in this implementation for a single-phase inverter is based on a synchronous reference frame PLL. Single-phase inverters require a virtual bi-phase system.
This application note describes the implementation of a 250 W grid connected DC-AC system suitable for operation with standard photovoltaic (PV) modules. The design is associated to the STEVAL-ISV003V1 demonstration board which demonstrates the possibility of implementing a full microinverter solution (MIC) using STMicroelectronics products.
In these operating conditions the current THD is 2.8%. When operating in grid connection, the current THD is higher and equal to 4.8% at full load while the power factor is equal to 0.92. Figure 30 shows the current and voltage waveforms during grid connected operation.

Abstract This work investigates the possibility of using the energy stored in the active elements of a static power converter that transfers power from solar panels to the grid for auxiliary purposes. In particular, its propose the option of using the energy of the DC-Link capacitor to obtain more power than the solar panel can generate by itself.
Connect with the output of the solar panel or PV simulator to guarantee that the positive and negative polarity connections are correct. Use the AC output line to connect the output terminal J2 of the TI’s micro solar inverter reference design board with the AC Source. The pin definition of J2 is as the following:
