Sine wave power inverter

[samrulezzz]

HI Sougata

Thanking u for takin time of your busy shchedule to explain each of the circuits........

i ve also got the mosfet drive circuits designs......but could not attach as i dont have a soft copy of the designs.....

the design is all but complete for the software code....which i was wanting help on....
actly was hopin u wud help me out on the code.....


but I fully understand ur situation regarding leagal issues......so if u cud help me in some other way like

if u knw any1 among ur frenz who can help me write the code.....

or u have any bits n pieces of codes u found on net or something dat mite help me


plz let me knw if u can direct me to some other person who can help me with the code.....i don mind paying him his fees for the help in the code....

hopin u can help me out in some way

If you surf on the net or follow EFY magazine you will find that there are people who are distributing .HEX files for as less as Rs.20,000.00 (USD$ 400) but you will get zero support as far as an academic project report is concerned. I have no idea whether anybody will give you source code. Most of them don't have it. So asking for paid support may be well exceed the scope of your project.

I personally feel that you should start writing your own code and the forum would help. A student project need not be perfect, but should be a proof of concept. So better start with the sine generation. Open loop-no feedback and then achieve other milestones as per time frame of the project.

Where are you located by the way.

hi sougata

ya wot u tell is true....no1 gives the source code normally....

i ve got bits n pieces of codes wen i surfed....
now trying to write a code on my own....
hoping it turns out gud



me located in mangalore karnataka state

Hi,

One suggestion. Do not rely on PBP while doing multiplication inside your sine lookup code. It takes many MCU cycles. Google for fixed latency multiply on PIC16. It takes more code space but timing is within control.

Good Luck

Dear Sougata,
I am beginning to work on Sine wave inverter generation, I am still a beginner in PIC I would like your guidance whether hardware pwm is better or software pwm, in terms of good working and reliablity also i am considering of using a 50hz type of transformer.
Thanks and Regards.

Hi,

Software PWM may result in a less BOM cost as all the steering is done in software. Also charging PWM controls become easier as you can steer your outputs. Software PWMs used in Sine generation still use the CCP unit in compare mode. @ 20MHz , you may be able to generate 4-6 KHz.

However I prefer hardware PWM as it relieves the MCU. Also much higher PWM frequency results in noiseless designs.

Where are you located anyway ? (Didn't get any info from your public profile)

Since you would be using single conversion, 50Hz transformer, I suggest you use a split bobbin design. I found they work better. However cannot say why as my magnetics knowledge is lower than nil. Somebody else may be able to shed some light on that.

Sougata, Thanks for such a clear guidance.
I am in located in a village called "Sanjan" in GUJARAT, the registration didn't ask questions so may be the profile is not updated i will update it anyway.
Also how can we use the same transformer for charging, since the transformer is in full bridge the MOSFET's body diodes will pass the uncontrolled charging once mains supply is given to transformer.Mains voltage is not same every where then how is charging control achieved unless transformer voltage is quite samll ?
One of my friend told me that SMPS based design is not suitable for all types of load that's why i am doing with 50Hz type transformer
Also my magnetics knowledge is quite poor, I do some designing based on formulas but you can not get good results without practical knowledge, i agree. That's why i am requesting from forum If any body can help me in transformer I would be really thankful.
