                 Name                                              Description
KEY_CHECK                          Checks the status of Run/Stop (SW1) and Fwd/Rev (SW2) keys.
PROCESS_KEY_PRESSED                Acts on command issued by the last pressed key.
FAULT_CHECK                        Checks for various Faults (overcurrent, overvoltage, overtemperature) and
                                   acts if any Fault is recognized.
CONVERT_MANUAL_COUNT_TO_HZ         Converts the potentiometer setting into the required motor speed (Hz) and
                                   sets the modulation index (m).
RAMP_SPEED                         Implements the acceleration/deceleration feature.
CALCULATE_UPDATE_STEP_SIZE         Calculates new vector update step size depending on the motor speed.
ISR_PWM                            Responds to setting of PTIF. This routine rotates by vector angle update step
                                   size and calculates new duty cycle values for all phases (R, Y and B).
ISR_ADC                            Responds to setting of ADIF. This routine reads the potentiometer setting,
                                   phase currents and junction temperature of the VSI switch and stores them
                                   at appropriate locations.
ISR_TMR1                           Responds to setting of TMR1IF. This routine reloads Timer1 for 5 ms
                                   overflow rate and increments RAMP_COUNT by 1 for generating a
                                   one-second interval (required for the acceleration/deceleration feature). This
                                   routine also blinks all LEDs at start when no key is pressed.

Resource utilization, as mentioned in Table 6, is for a
general purpose, relocatable code implementing the
VF control using the SVM algorithm on PIC18F4431
with 14-bit PWM resolution. A customized solution with
only 8-bit PWM resolution can conceivably result in an
additional 10% savings in CPU processing time.

                    VRf = m × sinθ                                        www.microchip.com.
                    VYf = m × sin(θ + 2π/3)
                    VBf = m × sin(θ + 4π/3)

Substituting Equation B-2 into Equation B-1, we get:

EQUATION B-3:
                   VDC (m × sinθ)
             VRO =
                    2
                   VDC (m × sin(θ + 2π/3))
             VYO =
                    2
                   VDC (m × sin(θ + 4π/3))
             VBO =
                    2

The resultant line-to-line output voltage is given as:

EQUATION B-4:
                            √3 × VDC × m × sin(θ + π/6)
    VRY = VRO – VYO =
                                2
            √3 × VDC × m × sin(θ + (5π)/6)
    VYB =
                2
            √3 × VDC × m × sin(θ + 3π/2)
    VRB =
                2


From Equation B-4, it is clear that the maximum line-to-
line voltage in the linear operating range is achieved
when m = 1.

EQUATION B-5:
                                              √3 × VDC
       Maximum line-to-line voltage =
                                                  2

This clearly shows that in Sine PWM, the VDC
utilization is less than 90% (~86.6%) in the linear
operating range.

The SVM is a sophisticated, averaging algorithm which gives 15% more voltage output compared to the Sine INTRODUCTION PWM algorithm, thereby increasing the VDC utilization. It also minimizes the THD as well as switching loss. VF control using the Sine PWM algorithm is a popular Like Sine PWM, the SVM is also a scalar control. The algorithm for AC induction motor control; however, this direct controlled variables are the motor voltage and algorithm has certain drawbacks which affect the the motor frequency. overall system efficiency.

See the “References” section for more REFERENCE VECTOR information on AC induction motors and their control. VYN SINE PWM Traditionally, VF control using the Sine PWM algorithm is implemented using a Voltage Source Inverter (VSI) controlled by a programmable device (microcontroller or DSP). Its popularity is mainly due to its easy 120° implementation and minimum online computational VS requirement. However, this algorithm has the following drawbacks: 120° VRN • The Sine PWM algorithm is unable to fully utilize 120° the available DC bus supply voltage (VDC) to the VSI. The generated line-to-line voltage is less than 90% of VDC in the linear operating region.

The fractional number with any 8-bit microcontroller will module has the capability to generate center aligned require more CPU processing time. This requirement is PWM with 14-bit resolution. This is the most important difficult to meet in the SVM implementation, where VS is feature required for the SVM implementation. updated at every TPWM (= 1/FPWM) time interval. At the VS needs to be created and rotated in space for SVM same time, the multiplication factor value needs to be implementation. To approximate the position of VS, such that its post-calculation adjustment requires the Equation 3, Equation 5 and the previously mentioned least possible microcontroller processing time. switching rules are utilized. Looking at Equation 5, one It is proposed that the multiplication factor be 256. This will notice that in the same sector, TA and TB are will result in a 16-bit value for the vector update step inverted with respect to each other. Hence, only one size and hence, 16-bit vector angle pointer look-up table with time entries is needed. A look-up (VECTOR_ANGLE<MSB:LSB>). As an adjustment for table with TB entries (TABLE_TB_COUNT<MSB:LSB>) the multiplication factor, VECTOR_ANGLE_LSB is is created. The size of the look-up table is decided by discarded. VECTOR_ANGLE_MSB is used as the table the angle resolution used. The total sector angle is 60° pointer for reading the value of TA and TB from the look- (π/3 radians).

The center aligned PWM is used for better THD count (SECTOR_NO) is incremented by one. The motor (FPWM = 1/2 * TS). voltage is decided by the amplitude of VS (modulation The required motor speed in Hz is decided by the rate index m). To implement the same digitally, values of TA at which the VS is rotated. For this purpose, it is and TB are multiplied by m. Based on TS, TA and TB, the necessary to find both the vector angle and the vector duty cycle values for all 3 phases (R, Y and B) are update step size.

To assist motor control developers, Microchip has At any instant, either the top or the bottom switch of a developed the PICDEM™ MC Development Board half bridge is on. Hence, the resultant phase-to-virtual based on the PIC18FXX31. This demo board has all neutral point ‘O’ (VRO, VYO and VBO) can be the necessary hardware for a range of motor control, represented as: for example, AC Induction motor, BLDC motor and Stepper motor. Various control algorithms have been EQUATION B-1: developed using the demo board to assist users in developing motor control application. Also, a PC-based VDC × V (where = R, Y, B) Vio = if i GUI has been developed for helping users in con- 2 figuring different motor control parameters and giving real-time capability to monitor the motor speed, the Vif represents the 3-phase waveforms in space with 120° 3-phase currents and temperature. (2π/3) phase shift between them. Each phase waveform can be represented as shown in Equation B-2: All source code and the motor control GUI are free to use and can be downloaded from the Microchip web EQUATION B-2: site at: VRf = m × sinθ www.microchip.com. VYf = m × sin(θ + 2π/3) VBf = m × sin(θ + 4π/3) Substituting Equation B-2 into Equation B-1, we get: EQUATION B-3: VDC (m × sinθ) VRO = 2 VDC (m × sin(θ + 2π/3)) VYO = 2 VDC (m × sin(θ + 4π/3)) VBO = 2 The resultant line-to-line output voltage is given as: EQUATION B-4: √3 × VDC × m × sin(θ + π/6) VRY = VRO – VYO = 2 √3 × VDC × m × sin(θ + (5π)/6) VYB = 2 √3 × VDC × m × sin(θ + 3π/2) VRB = 2 From Equation B-4, it is clear that the maximum line-to- line voltage in the linear operating range is achieved when m = 1. EQUATION B-5: √3 × VDC Maximum line-to-line voltage = 2 This clearly shows that in Sine PWM, the VDC utilization is less than 90% (~86.6%) in the linear operating range.
