3 Phase Angle Control

[sougata]

Hi,

You can use two reverse connected SCRs with two gate drivers (common feed) for switching inductive loads.

Thanks for yours answers..but I am confused anyway..

@sougata: do u think that use 2 scr and not 1 triac for any phase improve the load controller? why? In that way I need 6 pwm output (instead of only 3).

@mark_s: I'm reading "motion feedback module" section and it's really interesting. The problem is that my pic input are three zero crossing phase and I would like control inductive load (like motors) with different phase displacement.

Hi,

Triacs commute at the zero cross. However due to current lag the voltage zero cross and the current zero cross do not coincide. So the other half part of the triac can come into conduction thus phase angle control is not achieved. If you use a 1:1:1 pulse transformer then the firing signal is fed to the pulse transformer. You can AND a logic drive with a 10 KHz PWM of 10%-25% duty to derive the final driving signal for the PulseTr. The two isolated windings then serve the purpose of firing to Anti-Parallel connected SCRs. So you need 3 drive signals only and not six.
