Solar Microinverter

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: SM72442, TMP103, SM73308, SM72295, ISO7242C, TPS5420

I am attempting to build a micro-inverter design to work with these panels: www.moserbaersolar.com/resources/MBVP-CAAP-BB-english.pdf

After looking at the  block diagram here: http://www.ti.com/solution/solar-micro-inverter-diagram .

I've settled on:

SM72442 MPPT controller
TMP103 for temperature sensing
SM73308 for PV panel current / voltage sensing (will this work on the inverter output too?)
SM72295 Bridge driver
ISO7242C for isolation
TPS5420 for Aux Bias Supply

What options are available for the DC-DC boost, DC-AC inverter and AC filter stages? The graphic doesn't list anything for those, and I'm sure someone here has a better idea than me which components would work best in this setup.

Are there better component options than the ones I've chosen?

Thank you for your help!

    I'm asking for help because I'm not exactly an expert at this stuff. I would prefer to get some guidance, or follow a working plan, and make something that works, rather than do it all by my lonesome from scratch and stand a very good chance of shorting everything out.
