Realization of Space Vector Modulation Technique in a Single FPGA Chip for Induction Motor Drive

Abstract

This paper proposes the circuit realization of Space Vector Modulation (SVM) algorithm using a single Altera Flex 10k chip (EPFlOK70RC240-4). An SVM integrated circuit (IC) has been designed and developed to improve the vector control of the three-phase voltage source inverter (VSI). The design of SVM IC is downloaded to the Altera UP2 Board and tested with the inverter circuit to drive a 3-phase induction motor. The experimental results for 33Hz and 50Hz fundamental frequency and inverter switching frequency of 8.19 kHz are recorded.
