    摘要: A voltage converter includes a transformer with a pair of primary coils and a secondary coil. The converter has a DC input and a capacitor bank, having a pair of capacitors, is connected across the DC input. A switch is associated with each primary coil. A gate drive feedback module outputs a pulse width modulated signal to drive either the first or second primary coil. A gate drive switch has as an input the pulse width modulated signal and outputs to the first second switch. A pulse steering logic module determines which of the first or second capacitors has a higher voltage and controls the gate drive switch to direct the pulse width modulated signal in response thereto.

    摘要: A full-bridge, NPC inverter uses pulse width modulation (PWM) to convert the DC voltage from a solar panel array to an AC voltage at the output of the inverter that is acceptable for connection to a utility. The PWM control unit has a predetermined carrier frequency. The carrier unit uses for each carrier period either positive or negative values of a reference voltage to generate a predetermined number of signals to control the switching on and off of each of the eight inverter switching elements in a predetermined pattern for a predetermined period of the carrier frequency period to thereby produce the acceptable alternating current voltage at the inverter output and not produce between the inverter input and earth ground a carrier frequency component.

    摘要: Non-linear inductor(s) are used to reduce the percent total harmonic distortion of the harmonics in the line currents in the input side rectifier system of an ac drive system. Several constructions for the non-linear inductor(s) are described. The non-linear inductor(s) may be constructed from E and I laminations. The gap depends on the construction of the middle leg of the E laminations and may have a step with a constant spacing or a variable spacing which depends on the stacking of the laminations. Alternatively the non-linear inductor(s) may be constructed from a toriodal core that either has a step gap or a variable type gap.

    摘要: A method for minimizing torque ripple in a permanent magnet brushless DC motor includes the steps of energizing a first winding of the motor to generate a first current, energizing a second winding of the motor to generate a second current, and overlapping the first and second currents in time by a preselected time to reduce torque ripple. The structure for performing the method includes conventional brushless DC motor drive circuitry responsive to a motor rotor position signal, and a speed control signal, to sequentially generate a gate drive signal for driving a respective semiconductor switch to energize each winding of the motor. The structure further includes a phase overlapping circuit interposed between the conventional brushless DC motor control circuitry output and the semiconductor switches used to energize each winding of the motor. The phase current overlap circuit includes a monostable multi-vibrator for generating a "one-shot." The pulse width or duration of the "one-shot" determines the extent of the phase current overlap. The overlapping circuit detects transitions on the gate drive signal lines, and in response generates a trigger signal. The trigger signal triggers generation of the "one-shot." The overlapping circuit maintains two of its gate drive signals for the duration of the "one-shot."

    摘要: A signal conditioning circuit which converts multiple analog signals received from an encoder into a multi-bit digital signal, corresponding to the angular position of a rotary object, which is independent of any common mode disturbances such as temperature, humidity, ambient light and aging. At any given time, at least one of the analog signals is at a maximum voltage and at least one of the analog signals is at a minimum voltage. At no time are all of the analog signals simultaneously at a maximum or simultaneously at a minimum. The signal conditioning circuit continuously detects the maximum and minimum values of the analog signals. A midpoint of the maximum and minimum values is determined and compared with the original analog signals. For all values of the analog signals greater than the midpoint value, a binary logic level of 1 is outputted. For all values of the analog signals less than the midpoint value, a binary logic level of 0 is outputted. There is one comparator and corresponding binary output for each analog signal. In combination, the comparators form the necessary multi-bit digital signal.
