Multi-timescale interaction of power electronics devices, including voltage source converter (VSC), has made the stability and analysis of high penetrating renewable power systems very complicated. In this paper, the impedance model is used to analyze the multi-timescale characteristics and interaction of the VSC. Firstly, the multi-timescale impedance characteristics of VSC are investigated based on the Bode plots. It is found that the slow-timescale (within the DC-link voltage control scale) and fast-timescale (within the AC current control scale) models are separately consistent with the full-order model perfectly within their low- and high-frequency ranges. In addition, there exists a high impedance peak within the intermediate frequency range (roughly from 10 Hz to 100 Hz). Then, the impedance peak is theoretically estimated and explained by the slow-fast-scale impedance parallel resonance through transfer-function diagram analysis. Moreover, it is found that the impedance peak is more related to some outer controllers, such as the alternative voltage control and active power control. Specifically, larger proportional coefficients can greatly suppress the resonance peak. Finally, simulations and experiments are conducted to verify the generality of the multi-timescale characteristics and interaction of the VSC. Hence these findings are not only significant to provide a physical insight into the inner key structure of the impedance of VSC, but also expected to be helpful for controller and parameter design of the VSC.
