Presented here is a design of an integrated circuit for a Universal controller for single phase thyristor convertors. The chip is designed in VHDL (Very High speed integrated Hardware Description Language and is implemented on an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array)
FEATURES
Double buffered interface logic allows configuration to any bus width, from serial to parallel of any width.
Interface directly on a dedicated data bus, without bus interface logic, or on a shared data bus
Instantiate the core as stand-alone or cascaded, in a daisy chain configuration.
Daisy chain multiple cores on one port address.
Instantaneous phase angle changes.
Can be configured for any oscillator frequency
Can be configured for any line frequency
Digital filtering of synchronizing input.
Configurable output pulse width
Output pulse can be configured for a train of pulses or a single pulse.
Can be configured for a semi controlled bridge or a fully controlled bridge.
Implement a dual bridge for 4 quadrant control.
APPLICATION
Thyristorised DC power control in a host of industrial and commercial applications:-
