Development of a Modern DSP-based Laboratory for Power Electronics Education

工程-工程技术（58）本项目采用明尼苏达大学开发的实验室，为电力电子学高级课程开发实验室活动。明尼苏达大学模型的修改包括通过在预实验室中包括PSpice模拟来特别强调电力电子的设计方面。最先进的基于数字信号处理（DSP）的软件正在重新配置以控制电力电子转换器。正在建设的新实验室包括：1)DSP控制器与逆变器导论；2)交直流变换器，包括用PSpice仿真分析二极管整流电路的输入电流谐波和输出电压纹波，以及用DSP控制单相电压源PWM逆变器的基本工作；3)采用DSP控制器进行电机控制应用。我们的目标是重振人们对电力和电力电子领域的兴趣，并帮助解决快速发展的多学科电力电子领域的生源不足危机。领导团队正在评估实验室对代表性不足的学生群体学习的影响。该项目得到了德州仪器公司的支持。通过网站、讲习班和会议进行传播。

Engineering-Engineering Technology (58) The project is developing laboratory activities for a senior course in power electronics by adapting labs developed at the University of Minnesota. Modifications to the University of Minnesota Model include placing special emphasis on design aspects of power electronics by including PSpice simulation in pre-labs. State-of-the-art Digital Signaling Processing-based (DSP) software is being reconfigured to control power electronic converters. New laboratories that are being developed include: 1) Introduction to DSP Controller and Inverter; 2) AC to DC converter that includes analysis of input current harmonic and output voltage ripple in diode rectifier circuits with PSpice simulation, and basic operation of a single phase voltage sources PWM inverter using DSP control; and 3) Motor control application using the DSP controller. A goal is to revitalize interest in the area of Electric Power and Power Electronics and help address the low student enrollment crisis in the rapidly developing multidisciplinary field of Power Electronics. The leadership team is assessing the impact that the laboratories have on learning for underrepresented populations of students. The project is being supported by Texas Instruments Inc. Dissemination is through a website, workshops and conferences.
