Abstract

This Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) based digital controller has been developed to improve the output of the frequency converter using Hardware Description Language. An attempt has been made to analyze converters using three modulation techniques namely sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM), delta modulation (DM) and trapezoidal modulation (TM) to reduce the harmonics. It has been found that for the Sine PWM, the total harmonic distortion factor (THD) is high when the output frequency is greater than input frequency. The output is improved with delta modulation scheme where the total harmonic distortion is found minimum as compare to the SPWM and TM techniques. The circuit has been tested qualitatively by observing various waveforms on digital storage oscilloscope (DSO). The overall system is compact and no external memory system is required. Tests have been carried out to show the effectiveness and flexibility of the proposed method.
