TheSGC · 01-31-2010, 12:20 PM

I have been way too lazy during my break, but now I am finally getting around to designing an AC controller for my ACGTX20. I am going to start ground up with IGBT modules and designing the power section. I have a few single IGBT modules, CM600HA modules but I haven't decided it I want to use that type (I would need 6 total) or get dual modules to keep the controller small. I guess it really depends on if I ever get paid.

I have been reading a good chunk on VFDs, and my Circuit's class this semester is dealing with AC circuits, so this should be good.

I am still working on getting a Solectria controller to analyze, and I need to figure out how the Encoder on my motor works before I can do any of the dsPic designing.
