Three-Day CEP Course on
MICROCONTROLLER
APPLICATIONS IN POWER ELECTRONICS
January
2 – 4, 2003
INTRODUCTION
With the advancements in the field of semiconductor devices, high-speed, high-power devices have been made available. This has facilitated the development of sophisticated power electronic systems for a wide range of applications (e.g. AC motor drives). Sophisticated and advanced power electronic systems, however, need power control techniques that can be easily implemented, are reliable and have flexibility. A considerable reduction in hardware can be realised if the control techniques have decision-making capabilities. This has been made possible by the advent of microprocessors and microcontrollers that are both powerful and easy to interface with systems. This course aims at studying the design and development of such intelligent systems.
APPLICATIONS
The course will be relevant and useful for the control of all sorts of power electronic systems (e.g. electric drives, power quality, electric traction, solar power conditioning etc.) automation, monitoring, sequencing, fault diagnostics and embedded system applications
CURRENT SENS0RS
A
Microcontroller based Electric Drive
COURSE STRUCTURE
The course will have both theoretical and experimental components. Stress would be given on Intel 8051 microcontroller, though selected examples of other popular controllers (e.g. Motorola’s MC68HC11, PIC Microcontroller etc.) and introduction to DSP control in power electronics will also be included. Participants can expect Intel’s 8051 architecture, its resources, assembly language programming and interfacing techniques. Typical applications to power electronic systems will be presented as `case-studies’. Emphasis will be given on practical implementation of the systems (both software and hardware aspects).
Course material based on the lectures will be made available at the time of the course.
