  1. Interrupt Service Routine 3 4 Main program 1 2 5 6 DSP-Based Sinusoidal PWM Signal Generation Algorithm for Three Phase Inverters • Abdelrahaman Yousif Eshag Lesan, Mamadou Lamine Doumbia, Member, IEEE, Pierre Sicard, Member , IEEE • Research Group on Industrial Electronics, Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières, Trois-Rivières, Canada Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières • Abstract Generation of DSP-based patterns to control three phase inverters substantially helped the development of modern electric drives used in various applications. This paper presents a DSP-based algorithm to generate sinusoidal PWM signals. The sinusoidal PWM generation algorithm is written in C language so it can be reused easily, in addition to the flexibility it provides in terms of changing the PWM switching frequency and the fundamental frequency of the inverter output voltage without modifying the modulating signal. The algorithm development methodology and the experimental results are presented. The output voltage and current harmonic spectra are compared for 5 kHz and 10 kHz carrier frequencies. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm. This work is part of a research project that aims to develop sensorless vector control of induction machines. • PWM Modulating Signal • DSP Signal Generation Flowchart - A look-up table that contains the calculated sine values for one phase is stored in a data file. - More table entries results in less deformed output waveforms. - An offset is added to the sine values read from the data file and the result is considered as phase (A) values. - The modulating sine waves for the other two phases are obtained by shifting phase (A) values by 500 and 250 points for phase (B) and phase (C) respectively.Fig. 1 shows a graph of the three sine wave modulating signals generated by the program. The implemented code flowchart is shown in Fig. 2. -Initializes System Control registers, Clocks and Peripheral InterruptExpansion (PIE)control registers to their default states. -Set high speed peripheral clock prescaler to 3 to adjust its frequency to 25 MHz. -Read sine table and generate the three phase modulating signal. -Enable interrupt. • A new sine value from the three different look-up tables is assigned to its corresponding compare register each interrupt. • The interrupt is triggered at timer 4 period match. At the end, the interrupt is acknowledged to receive more interrupts from PIE group 5 and the flag is cleared. The counter (index) is reset every 751 interrupts where the number (751) defines the look-up table length. Fig. 2 DSP signal generation flowchart Fig. 1 Three phase sine wave modulating signals • Results Fig. 3 illustrates a single sequence of the generated phase (A) PWM patterns for two different switching frequencies 5 kHz and 10 kHz . The amplitude of the generated three phase signals is 3.3V so they are amplified and sent to the three phase inverter’s IGBT driving circuit, which operates at 12V. Resistors (30 ) in series with inductors (30 mH) are used as inverter load. The DC bus voltage is 115 V, and the load is delta connected. Fig. 4 illustrate the inverter output voltage waveforms for 5 kHz and 10 kHz frequencies. It is clear that by increasing the IGBT switching frequency, we obtain less deformed waveforms and greater output amplitudes for the same inverter dc voltage input, of course at the expense of increasing switching losses. Figs. 5, show the harmonic content of the inverter output voltage for 5 kHz and 10 kHz switching frequencies. Again we notice that the total harmonic distortion is substantially reduced upon switching frequency augmentation. • PWM Carrier Signal • General Purpose Timers 3 of the DSP is used to generate the saw tooth carrier signal. • The timer period value is calculated for 10KHz frequency as follows: Fig. 3 PWM patterns at 5 kHz and 10 kHz Fig. 4 Voltage waveforms at 5kHz and 10 kHz -GP timer 4 is used to modify periodically the compare register in order to obtain the desired frequency of the inverter output. -The interrupt is generated upon period match. The period value for this timer obtain the 60 Hz inverter output voltage is calculated as follows: Fig. 5 Current waveforms at 5kHz and 10 kHz • Conclusion This paper presented an algorithm to generate sine modulated PWM signals for three phase inverters using Texas Instruments TMS320F2812 DSP. Step-by-step program development, algorithm and flowchart are detailed. The sinusoidal PWM generation algorithm is written in C language so it can be reused easily, in addition to the flexibility it provides in terms of changing the fundamental frequency of the inverter output voltage. Output voltage and current’s total harmonic distortions were measured and compared for 5 kHz and 10 kHz IGBT switching frequency. Experimental results prove the algorithm functionality and the validity of the experimental setup for three phase inverter applications including electric drives. Timer 4 period register value represents the step required to load the next value from the sine table. Modifying this period register value results in changing the inverter output frequency without the need to change the frequency of the modulating signal as in the conventional sine PWM generation.
