My goal was to use 9” Kostov 120V SepEx with homemade controller that supports regeneration and keep budget for entire conversion lower as possible. A friend that has more experience in electronics stated that I could switch the field wiring instead of armature (where 10 times bigger currents are flowing) to achieve regen.
I have some experience with programming pic12 to pic18, but when I found what Paul achieved with the code I am speechless!!! – I know nothing!!!
And here is my weakness – I used Picbasic and have no knowledge in Atmel and C (and feel a little old to learn new language, but why to start from scratch with Basic since you have such success?!).
I learned that Camaro succeeded with pic24xxx and Paul’s design.
Camaro, would you please share your plans/code – I must start reading some "C" guide (my e-mail is
dean_stoev@abv.bg).
Paul, I’m waiting (non-)patiently to see your new design with soldered FETS to bus bar tested!!!
