ABSTRACT

The High-Frequency Inverter is mainly used today in uninterruptible power supply systems, AC motor drives,induction heating and renewable energy source systems. The simplest form of an inverter is the bridge-type,where a power bridge is controlled according to the sinusoidal pulse-width modulation (SPWM) principle and theresulting SPWM wave is filtered to produce the alternating output voltage. In many applications, it is importantfor an inverter to be lightweight and of a relatively small size. This can be achieved by using a High-FrequencyInverter that involves an isolated DC-DC stage (Voltage Fed Push-Pull/Full Bridge) and the DC-AC section,which provides the AC output. This application report documents the implementation of the Voltage Fed FullBridge isolated DC-DC converter followed by the Full-Bridge DC-AC converter using TMS320F28069 ( C2000™)for High-Frequency Inverters.

Figure 1-1. 50 Hz Technology

The applied DC voltage is converted to a 50 Hz AC voltage via a full bridge (S1...S4). This is then transmitted viaa 50 Hz transformer and subsequently fed into the public grid.• Benefits:

– High degree of reliability due to fewer components– Safety through galvanic isolation of the DC and AC sides

The existing DC voltage is converted to a square 50 Hz AC voltage via a full bridge (S1...S4), then smoothed toa sinusoidal 50 Hz AC voltage via the chokes (L1+L2) and fed into the public grid.

• Benefits:– Compact and light due to lack of transformer– Very high degree of efficiency (for example, no transformer losses)

• Disadvantages:– Additional safety measures (residual current circuit breaker) required. In some countries, a lack of galvanic

isolation between the DC and AC sides is not permitted.– Complicated lightning protection– Not compatible with modules that must be earthed

The full bridge (S1...S4) generates a high-frequency square-wave signal with 40 – 50 kHz, which is transmittedvia the HF transformer (Tr1). The bridge rectifiers (D1...D4) convert the square-wave signal back to DC voltageand store it in the intermediate circuit (L1+C2). A second full bridge (S5...S8) then generates a 50 Hz ACvoltage, which is smoothed to a sinusoidal 50 Hz AC voltage via the chokes (L2+L3) before being fed into thepublic grid.

made to the high-resolution pulse width modulator (HRPWM) module to allow for dual-edge control (frequencymodulation).

Analog comparators with internal 10-bit references have been added and can be routed directly to control thepulse width modulation (PWM) outputs. The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) converts from 0 to 3.3-V fixed fullscale range and supports ratio-metric VREFHI/VREFLO references. The ADC interface has been optimized forlow overhead and latency. The above features make the F2806x Piccolo suitable for handling both the stages ofthe High-Frequency Inverter.

The main blocks of the High-Frequency Inverter include:

• DC-DC isolation stage• DC-AC converter section

3 DC-DC Isolation Stage - High-Frequency InverterThe selection of the DC-DC isolation stage for the High-Frequency Inverter depends on the kVA requirements ofthe inverter. The power supply topologies suitable for the High-Frequency Inverter includes push-pull, half-bridgeand the full-bridge converter as the core operation occurs in both the quadrants, thereby, increasing the powerhandling capability to twice of that of the converters operating in single quadrant (forward and flyback converter).The push-pull and half-bridge require two switches while the full-bridge requires four switches. Generally, thepower capability increases from push-pull to half-bridge to full-bridge.

Figure 3-1. Push-Pull Topology

The Push-Pull topology is basically a forward converter with two primaries. The primary switches alternatelypower their respective windings. When Q1 is active, current flows through D1. When Q2 is active, current flowsthrough D2. The secondary is arranged in a center tapped configuration as shown in Figure 3-1. The output filtersees twice the switching frequency of either Q1 or Q2. The transfer function is similar to the forward converter,where “D” is the duty cycle of a given primary switch, which accounts for the “2X” term. When neither Q1 nor Q2are active, the output inductor current splits between the two output diodes.

A transformer reset winding shown on the forward topology is not necessary, the topology is self resetting.

3.1 Half Bridge ConverterThe Half Bridge converter is similar to the Push-Pull converter, but a center tapped primary is not required. Thereversal of the magnetic field is achieved by reversing the direction of the primary winding current flow. In thiscase, two capacitors, C1 and C2, are required to form the DC input mid-point. Transistors Q1 and Q2 are turnedON alternately to avoid a supply short circuit, in which case the duty cycle d must be less than 0.5.

3.2 Full Bridge ConverterThe transformer topology for both the Half Bridge and Full Bridge converter is the same, except that for a givenDC link voltage of the Half Bridge transformer sees half the applied voltage as compared with that of the FullBridge transformer. The current flows in opposite directions during alternate half cycles. So flux in the coreswings from negative to positive, utilizing even the negative portion of the hysteresis loop, thereby, reducing thechances of core saturation. Therefore, the core can be operated at greater Bm value here. The largest poweris transferred when the duty cycle is less than 50%. Diagonal pairs of transistors (Q1-Q4 or Q2-Q3) conductalternately, thus, achieving current reversal in the transformer primary.

• For a given input voltage, the voltage stress on the transistors is double in case of the push-pull topology thanHalf Bridge and Full Bridge configuration.

• The center tapped primary in the case of the push-pull converter limits the operation for a higher VA rating forthe same core size when compared to the Half Bridge and Full Bridge converter.

• To prevent flux walking in the DC-DC stage, the current in both the halves need to be sensed and the dutycycle needs to be corrected accordingly.

3.2.1 Flux Walking

Faraday’s Law states that the flux through a winding is equal to the integral volt-seconds per turn. This requiresthat the voltage across any winding of any magnetic device must average zero over a period of time. Thesmallest DC voltage component in an applied AC waveform will slowly but inevitably “walk” the flux intosaturation.

In a low frequency mains transformer, the resistance of the primary winding is usually sufficient to control thisproblem. As a small DC voltage component pushes the flux slowly toward saturation, the magnetizing currentbecomes asymmetrical. The increasing DC component of the magnetizing current causes an IR drop in thewinding, which eventually cancels the DC voltage component of the drive waveform, hopefully well short ofsaturation. In a high frequency switchmode power supply, a push-pull driver will theoretically apply equal andopposite volt-seconds to the windings during alternate switching periods, thus, “resetting” the core (bringing theflux and the magnetizing current back to its starting point). But there are usually small volt second asymmetriesin the driving waveform due to inequalities in MOSFET RDSon or switching speeds. The resulting small DCcomponent causes the flux to “walk”. The high frequency transformer, with relatively few primary turns, hasextremely low DC resistance, and the IR drop from the DC magnetizing current component is usually notsufficient to cancel the volt-second asymmetry until the core reaches saturation.

The flux walking problem is a serious concern with any Push-Pull topology (bridge, half-bridge or push-pull CT),when using voltage mode control. One solution is to put a small gap in series with the core. This raises themagnetizing current so that the IR drop in the circuit resistances is able to offset the DC asymmetry in the drivewaveform. But the increased magnetizing current represents increased energy in the mutual inductance, whichusually ends up in a snubber or clamp, increasing circuit losses. A more elegant solution to the asymmetryproblem is an automatic benefit of using the current mode control (peak or average CMC). As the DC fluxstarts to walk in one direction, due to the volt-second drive asymmetry, the peak magnetizing current becomesprogressively asymmetrical in alternate switching periods. However, current mode control senses the current andturns off the switches at the same peak current level in each switching period, so that ON times are alternatelylengthened and shortened. The initial volt-second asymmetry is thereby corrected, peak magnetizing currentsare approximately equal in both directions, and flux walking is minimized.

However, with the Half Bridge topology this creates a new problem. When current mode control corrects the volt-second inequality by shortening and lengthening alternate pulse widths, an ampere-second (charge) inequalityis created in alternate switching periods. This is of no consequence in full bridge or push-pull center-tap circuits,but in the half-bridge, the charge inequality causes the capacitor divider voltage to walk towards the positiveor negative rail. As the capacitor divider voltage moves away from the mid-point, the volt-second unbalance ismade worse, resulting in further pulse width correction by the current mode control. A runaway situation exists,and the voltage will walk (or run) to one of the rails.

Considering the above points, the Full Bridge converter seems to be the ideal choice for the High-FrequencyInverter rated above 1kVA.

4 DC-AC ConverterThe DC-AC Converter section of the High-Frequency Inverter is an H-Bridge, which converts the high voltageDC bus (380 V) into sinusoidal AC waveform.

The sinusoidal PWM generation is done using the PWM interrupt handler in TMS320F28069 by entering into aninfinite loop. A look-up table is formed that samples the instantaneous values at specific time intervals based onthe operating frequency of the DC-AC section. The DC-AC section is operated at 20 kHz, based on that the totalnumber of samples for half cycle is 200. The instantaneous value is then multiplied by the maximum duty cyclecount to get the duty cycle count at the corresponding sample instant. This generates the sinusoidal PWM forthe full bridge section. The DC-AC section consists of high-side and low-side drivers to drive the Mosfets in theH-Bridge configuration followed by an output L-C- L filter resulting in sinusoidal sine wave.

In UCC27211, the high side and low side each have independent inputs, which allow maximum flexibility of inputcontrol signals in the application. The boot diode for the high-side driver bias supply is internal to the chip. TheUCC27210 is the pseudo-CMOS compatible input version and the UCC27211 is the TTL or logic compatibleversion. The high-side driver is referenced to the switch node (HS), which is typically the source pin of thehigh-side MOSFET and drain pin of the low-side MOSFET. The low-side driver is referenced to VSS, which istypically ground. The functions contained are the input stages, UVLO protection, level shift, boot diode, andoutput driver stages.

Figure 5-1 shows the independent control of the high-side and low-side drivers and the internal bootstrap diodecapable of withstanding the reverse voltage up to 120 V.

The VDD supply of the IC is derived from the 12 V battery itself (HF inverter source). The DC-DC stage convertsthe 12 V input voltage to a regulated 380 V DC bus, which is the input to the DC-AC section. To avoid batteryinrush current at the start of the PWM, soft start is implemented that controls the rate of di/dt. The PWM’s initiallystart with a very low duty and finally duty cycle is adjusted as per the regulation point of the DC bus voltage(380 V). The operating frequency for the switches in the DC-DC section is 40 kHz, the output filter sees twice thefrequency of the switches M6 or M9 (see Figure A-1).

The AMC1100 is a precision isolation amplifier with an output separated from the input circuitry by a silicondioxide (SiO2) barrier that is highly resistant to magnetic interference. This barrier has been certified to providegalvanic isolation of up to 4250 V peak, according to UL1577 and IEC60747-5-2. Used in conjunction withisolated power supplies, this device prevents noise currents on a high common-mode voltage line from enteringthe local ground and interfering with or damaging sensitive circuitry.

After sensing the peak current, the duty cycle is corrected for each of the corresponding halves and volt secondasymmetry is thereby corrected, to minimize flux walking.

Figure 7-1. Functional Block Diagram

The AC voltage feedback to the MCU for closed-loop control is given by scaling down the voltage by a resistordivider network and rectifying it by means of a precision rectifier circuit. The precision rectifier circuit is built withthe high-speed precision difference amplifier INA143 followed by TL082 powered from a dual supply (±12 V).The rectified and scaled down Sine wave is fed to the MCU for closed-loop control of the output voltage.

The load current sense is done using ACS709, which is a precision linear Hall sensor integrated circuit withcopper conduction path. Applied current flows through the copper conduction path, and the analog outputvoltage from the Hall sensor IC linearly tracks the magnetic field generated by the applied current. The voltageon the overcurrent input (VOC pin) allows to define an overcurrent fault threshold for the device. When thecurrent flowing through the copper conduction path (between the IP+ and IP– pins) exceeds this threshold, theopen drain overcurrent fault pin transitions to a logic-low state and can be used to shut down the PWM pulsesof the DC-AC section and DC-DC section as well to provide protection against overload and short circuit of theload.

10 ConclusionThis application report documents the concept reference design for the DC-DC Stage and the DC-AC Convertersection that can be used in the High-Frequency Inverter using TMS320F28069, which handles the PWMgeneration and closed loop control of both the stages.

The reference design was tested for 100W load and can be further tested at higher VA ratings modifyingthe power components of the DC-AC Converter Section. The reference design is targeted for High-FrequencyInverters rated for higher VA used in the industrial segment.
