Three Phase Induction Motor Speed Control using dSPIC Controller

Description

INTRODUCTION

This project describes the speed control of the Induction motor with the dSPIC Controller (dsPIC30F4011 Digital Signal Controller) By comparing the sine and triangular wave (internal) dsPIC30F4011 generates the controlled switching pulses for the inverter. The speed control is done by changing the frequency of reference sine and amplitude of sine from dsPIC30F4011. The motor speed is measured by using the proximity sensor placed on the Induction Motor and displayed on LCD.

HARDWARE BLOCK DIAGRAM

In this project, the Three Phase Induction Motor is controlled by the dsPIC Controller (30F4011). The Induction Motor power is converted from AC and Full wave rectifier. The 3Ph Inverter circuit formed using IRFP250 MOSFET and its gate is driven by TLP250 with a separate isolator for TOP and BOTTOM MOSFET from dsPIC30F4011. The speed of induction motor speed is sensed by the Proximity sensor
