Abstract
A simple multiple pulsewidth modulated (MPWM) ac chopper using power transistors for 3-? power control is discussed. 120° chopping period is used for main transistors so that the circuit can accommodate resistive and lagging or leading power factor loads. Only 1-? sensing is used for 3-? control. An alternate economical power and control schemes for 3-? MPWM ac choppers suitable only for resistive loads is also suggested. The experimental results for 12 choppings per cycle are given.
