Solar Fed Multilevel Inverter Program Output

[paplu]

I'm having very hard time writing code for pic16f877a for my solar powered multilevel inverter with the above switching strategy. Can someone help me write this code? PLEASEEEE...:idea:

Your timing scheme has 14 steps. Create 7 arrays named SW1(), SW2(), etc.
In each array create 14 elements which contain the successive state (0 or 1) of that switch.

Go through a for-next loop X=1 to 14.
Examine SW1(X). If it's 1, then turn it on. If zero then turn it off.

Examine SW2(X). Etc through all switches.

Increment X until X=14.
Repeat the for-next loop.

Hi,

A question....
* Do you want to write code on your own? --> then start with an idea, a piece of paper, a pencil, a flow chart....
* Or do you want someone else write code for you? --> then consider to pay for it.

I have written this code for PIC16f877a but the output waveform is distorted. I'm a beginner in programming. Can you suggest what I am doing wrong so that I could get a correct output at 50Hz.

Instead of letting us guess about the implemented multilevel scheme, you may want to post a circuit that shows the switch function.

Sorry for that. I have added the circuit.

I see what you intend, but I don't see how the you can generate a stepped voltage with this circuit. You want soemthing like this

The timing of the polarity switcher looks also wrong.
