Description
Summary:This work presents development of basic rectifier operation using Single Phase Matrix Converter (SPMC) topology. An outline of the basic principle of rectifier operation is defined, Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBTs) are used as a power switch and Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique is used to synthesize the output waveform. The proposed design enabled the user to do variation of output voltage of 5 kHz and 10 kHz switching frequency using Modulation index. MATLAB/Simulink model is developed to study the basic behavior of SPMC. Safe commutation strategy is implemented to avoid voltage spike due to inductive load. A basic load represented by R load is used for this investigation. Xilinx FPGA is used as a heart of the control electronics employing the use of digital technique.
