Description
?Single-phase Induction Motor
This project is used to control the speed of a single-phase induction motor by using an Arduino controller. The single-phase inverter converts dc voltage into ac voltage. Single-phase induction motor speed depends on the frequency of the inverter.
Details for 1Phase Inverter Board
The inverter card comes with an inbuilt full bridge rectifier and filter capacitor. 4 No?s of IRFP250 MOSFETs are mounted with a Heat sink. The output of the inverter is terminated with a 2 pin PTB Connector. The user should get soldered on the backside of the board for the gate pulse interface.

Block Diagram
Block Diagram Explanation
- Pulse generator: ? Here we have used a PIC microcontroller (PIC 16F877a) to generate a PWM signal.
- Driver circuit: It is used to amplify the pulses and provided isolations using an optocoupler. It has two functions,
- Amplification
- Isolation
- Bridge Rectifier: It converts AC supply to DC Supply.
- Single-phase Inverter: It converts DC supply to single-phase AC Supply to drive the single-phase induction motor.
Arduino Controller
Working
The Arduino controller is used to generate the PWM pulses for the inverter circuit. The Arduino controller pulses are given to the driver circuit as input. Driver board is mainly used to isolate and amplify the input signals from the controller. The amplified driver output is connected to the main power circuit devices. The ac supply is converted into dc by using a bridge rectifier. And the dc voltage is applied to the inverter circuit and by varying the frequency of the inverter the motor speed also varied.
Advantages
- High efficiency
- Easy to control the speed
- Switching losses are reduced
Applications
- Industrial applications
- Pumping system
