INTRODUCTION• Inverters are circuits that converts dc
input voltage to a symmetric ac output voltage by which both magnitude and frequency can be controlled.
• Applications :– adjustable speed ac motor drives,
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS), and ac appliances run from an automobile battery.
![Page 5: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
TYPES OF INVERTER• Voltage Source Inverter (VSI):
• Current Source Inverter (CSI)
![Page 6: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
VOLTAGE SOURCE INVERTER (VSI) WITH VARIABLE DC LINK• DC link voltage is varied by a DC-to DC
converter or controlled rectifier.
• Generate “square wave” output voltage.
• Output voltage amplitude is varied as DC link is varied.
• Frequency of output voltage is
varied by changing the
frequency of the square
wave pulses.
![Page 7: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
VOLTAGE SOURCE INVERTER (VSI) WITH VARIABLE DC LINK• Advantages:
– simple waveform generation
– Reliable
• Disadvantages:– Extra conversion stage
– Poor harmonics
![Page 8: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
VSI WITH FIXED DC LINK• DC voltage is held
constant.
• Output voltage amplitude and frequency are varied simultaneously using PWM technique.
• Good harmonic control, but at the expense of complex waveform generation
![Page 9: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
SQUARE WAVE INVERTER• Square wave inverter can be
simplifying justified with a switching scheme of full bridge converter.
• An square wave ac output voltage is synthesized from a dc input by closing and opening the switches in an appropriate sequence.
• The output voltage can be +Vdc, -Vdc, or zero, depending on which switches are closed.
![Page 10: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
OPERATION OF SIMPLE SQUARE-WAVE INVERTER
• Parallel diode is used when the current in the switch is negative
• Diode will reverse-biased when current is positive in the switch

AMPLITUDE & HARMONIC CONTROL• The amplitude of the fundamental frequency for a square-wave output from the full-bridge inverter is determined by the dc input voltage.
• A controlled output can be produced by modifying the switching scheme.
• This output voltage can be controlled by adjusting the interval on each side of the pulse where the output is zero.
• Harmonic also can be eliminated by choosing a value of which make the sine terms go to zero.

TRY THIS………
For the full-bridge inverter:Given :– Dc source = 125 V; - Load (R-L in series) R = 10 Ω and L = 20 mH- - switching frequency = 60 Hz.
(a)Determine α to produce output with an amplitude 100V at fundamental frequency.
(b)Determine the THD of the load current.

PULSE-WIDTH MODULATED OUTPUT
• In square wave inverters, maximum output voltage is achievable.
•However there in NO control in harmonics and output voltage magnitude.
i.e the harmonics are always at three, five, seven etc times the fundamental frequency.
•Hence the cut-off frequency of the low pass filter is somewhat fixed. The filter size is dictated by the VA ratings of the inverter.
•To reduce filter size, the PWM switching scheme can be utilized.
• In this technique, the harmonics are “pushed” to higher frequencies. Thus the cut-off frequency of the filter is increased. Hence the filter components (i.e. L and C) sizes are reduced.
•The trade off for this flexibility is complexity in the switching waveforms.

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION (PWM)
![Page 29: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
PULSE WIDTH MODULATION (PWM)• Triangulation method (Natural sampling)
– Amplitudes of the triangular wave (carrier) and sine wave (modulating) are compared to obtain PWM waveform. Simple analogue comparator can be used.
– Basically an analogue method. Its digital version, known as REGULAR sampling is widely used in industry.
![Page 30: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
PULSE WIDTH MODULATION (PWM)• Production of PWM waveform using
reference sinewave:
• Comparator determines instants at which waveforms cross in order to produce switching waveform
• PWM output waveform tracks amplitude and frequency of reference sinewave
![Page 31: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
PULSE WIDTH MODULATION (PWM)• As switching frequency is increased,
switching loss becomes issue
• Implementation by ICs which essentially contain tables of pre-calculated values of switching angles covering range of output frequencies
• As computational speeds of ICs increase, it is now possible to calculate required firing angles in real time in order to optimise strategy for harmonic elimination, and control, further improving inverter performance

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION (PWM) TYPES
• Natural (sinusoidal) sampling (as shown on previous slide)– Problems with analogue circuitry, e.g. Drift, sensitivity etc.
• Regular sampling - simplified version of natural sampling that results in simple digital implementation
• Optimised PWM - PWM waveform are constructed based on certain performance criteria, e.g. THD.
• Harmonic elimination/minimisation PWM– PWM waveforms are constructed to eliminate some
undesirable harmonics from the output waveform spectra.
– Highly mathematical in nature
• Space-vector modulation (SVM)– A simple technique based on volt-second that is normally
used with three-phase inverter motordrive

BIPOLAR SWITCHING
![Page 34: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
UNIPOLAR SWITCHING

PULSE WIDTH MODULATION IN UNIPOLAR INVERTERS
The square wave output can be produced using a comparator to compare the triangle wave with the sine wave.

HALF-BRIDGE INVERTER
• Also known as the “inverter leg”.• Basic building block for full bridge, three phase and higher order inverters.
• G is the “centre point”.• Both capacitors have the same value. Thus the DC link is equally “spilt” into two.
• The top and bottom switch has to be “complementary”, i.e. If the top switch is closed (on), the bottom must be off, and vice-versa.
![Page 37: Power Electronics Slides and Notes DC Converters](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061616/55cf912b550346f57b8b5445/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
SHOOT THROUGH FAULT AND“DEAD-TIME”
• In practical, a dead time as shown below is required to avoid “shoot-through” faults, i.e. short circuit across the DC rail.
• Dead time creates “low frequency envelope”. Low frequency harmonics emerged.
• This is the main source of distortion for high-quality sine wave inverter.

INTRODUCTION TO THREE-PHASE INVERTER
• Each leg (Red, Yellow, Blue) is delayed by 120 degrees.
• A three-phase inverter with star connected load is shown below
