Single-chip microcomputer control of the inverter by the magnetic flux control PWM method (machine control)

Single-chip microcomputer control of a pulsewidth-modulated (PWM) inverter for motor drive applications is presented. The PWM pattern generation and the system control of the inverter are achieved by software of the 8-bit single-chip microcomputer. The single-chip microcomputer has a low processing speed and small memory capacity, disadvantages that can be overcome by the magnetic flux control PWM method. The PWM pattern is generated every 90 mu s. The memory capacity of the PWM look-up table is less than 2 kbytes. Experimental results show that the motor performances are the same as that of the multichip triangular-sinewave PWM inverter.<
