Abstract:Sinusoidal pulse width modulation ( SPWM) technology of medium - voltage mechanical and electrical drive system is complex,and it needs considering the factors such as dead zone,narrow pulse filter. A new modulation system scheme is proposed. The FPGA is used to design the pulse generation program. The state machine cycle algorithm is also proposed to generate triangular carrier and impulse signal,and the edge of the modulation wave is optimized. At the same time,the driver board of 4. 5 kV IGBT is designed,which contains the drive chip,drive circuit and filter circuit. Experimental tests show that the dead zone and pulse width of the proposed modulation system meet the performance index of medium - voltage IGBT.
