LabVIEW Based Control System for PWM DC-DC Converters

Abstract

The work presents a control system for power electronic devices that are regulated by the principle of the pulse width modulation. The system is based on the visual programming environment LabVIEW and the control program has been developed with the embedded IVI toolkits. Of a particular interest is that the physical hardware has been used is not designed by National Instruments, but instead designed to conform the standards set by the company. This way the developed system is accessible, competitive and it is suitable for use in Power Electronics training.
