Design and Implementation of IGBT Based High Frequency Output Cyclo-Inverter Prototype

Abstract

Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor (IGBT) based controlled power is widely used in industrial applications recently. The research scope of this paper is to design and implementation of IGBT based cyclo-inverter to produce higher output frequency than input where advanced microcontroller technique was used for the implementation of control circuit. The performance of the control circuit is tested by simulating the model on Proteus Simulations packages and the full set-up is simulated using MATLAB/ Simulink software before hardware implementation. Then a prototype is developed in the lab and tested for successful operation. Experimental results obtained from oscillographic displays are found symmetrical with the theoretical expectations and simulation results.
