Power Electronic Converters
for DC Drives
To obtain variable voltage
Efficient
Ideally lossless
Depending on voltage source:
AC voltage source Controlled Rectifiers
Fixed DC voltage source
DC-DC converters (switch mode
converters)

Controlled Rectifier Fed DC Drives
To obtain variable DC voltage from fixed AC source
DC current flows in only 1 direction
Example of a drive system
Dr. Ungku Anisa, July 2008 EEEB283 - Electrical Machines & Drives 4
Controlled Rectifier Fed DC Drives
Contains low frequency AC ripple
To reduce ripple: extra inductance added in series with La
Slow response
Discontinuous current may occur if
La not large enough
Motor is lightly loaded
Half-wave rectifier is used
Effect of discontinuous current
Rectifier output voltage increases motor speed increases
(poor speed regulation under open-loop operation)

DC – DC Converter Fed Drives
To obtain variable DC voltage from fixed DC source
Self-commutated devices preferred (MOSFETs, IGBTs,
GTOs) over thyristors
Commutated by lower power control signal
Commutation circuit not needed
Can be switched at higher frequency for same rating
Improved motor performance (less ripple, no discontinuous
currents, increased control bandwidth)
Suitable for high performance applications
Regenerative braking possible up to very low speeds even
when fed from fixed DC voltage source

Closed-loop Control
Feedback loops may be provided to satisfy one or more of the
following:
Protection
Enhancement of speed response
Improve steady-state accuracy
Variables to be controlled in drives:
Torque – achieved by controlling current
Speed
Position
Controllers are designed based on a linear averaged model
Dr. Ungku Anisa, July 2008 EEEB283 - Electrical Machines & Drives 30
Closed-loop Control
Variables to be controlled in drives:
Torque – achieved by controlling current
Commonly employed current sensor:
Current shunt – no electrical isolation, cheap
Hall effect sensor – provides electrical isolation

Closed-loop Control
Variables to be controlled in drives:
Speed – with or without current loop
Commonly employed speed/position sensor:
Tachogenerator – analog based
Digital encoder – digital based, converts speed to pulses
Torque is governed by speed demand:
Without current loop: no limit on current – can be too high
With current loop: current can be limited
Dr. Ungku Anisa, July 2008 EEEB283 - Electrical Machines & Drives 32
