Mark, no need for you to worry. I want to experiment with mine, first with totem pole drive, then without. All using the same DC bulk caps, same everything. So I think I need to use mine. Noneya: I attach 4 versions of the code, all running on the same hardware. This generates the familiar 50Hz squarewave on one 1/2 bridge and 20kHz SPWM on the other 2018-11-01_191506_uno_inverter_type3.ino.zip This is the variable AC output frequency (about 40 to 90Hz) version of SPWM on both 1/2 bridges. Soft start and soft stop. 2018-11-01_191526_uno_inverter_2x_sinewave_pwm_vf_output_freq.ino.zip This is outputs a fixed 50Hz output but with variable PWM from 2kHz to 100kHz approx. 2018-11-01_191549_uno_inverter_2x_sinewave_pwm_vf_pwm.ino.zip This outputs a fixed 50Hz using SPWM on both 1/2 bridges. 2018-11-01_191607_uno_inverter_2x_sinewave_pwm.ino.zip I can aid anyone with the circuitry required, etc. if you choose to have a hack of my codes. The deadtime comes with the IR2184. The pin that controls it just needs a resistor to ground. 0 ohms = 400ns, 100K Ohms = 2ms or thereabouts. Best results for me have been pretty much minimum deadtime where "best" is lowest idle input current. There is not much in it, maybe +/- 5% variance. wronger than a phone book full of wrong phone numbers |
