Solar Inverters Case Study
Speedgoat has large expertise in developing solutions for customers in the area of renewable energy - e.g. for solar inverters or wind turbine generators.
Typical requirements for real-time prototyping and testing of power electronics applications such as for solar inverters include:
- High base sample rates (20kHz for algorithms, up to 200kHz for power electronics control)
- High performance real-time target machine
- High-speed analog I/O (also on FPGA module)
- Very complex and tightly synchronised (also with analog I/O) PWM capture and generation for simulating and controlling various H-bridge topologies (multi-phase, dead-times, inter-phase synchronization)
- Heavy use of high-end reconfigurable FPGA I/O modules
