The presented 3 phase VFD circuit (designed by me) can be used for controlling the speed of any three phase brushed AC motor or even a brushless AC motor. The idea was requested by Mr. Tom Using the VFD The proposed 3-phase VFD circuit can be universally applied for most 3-phase AC motors where the […]
Grid and 3-Phase
Calculator to Design a High Power 3kW PFC (Power Factor Correction) Circuit
In this post I will explain how to use this active PFC calculator for calculating high current, high PFC designs. In our example we will be using 230 VAC input and 3 kW output and Vout equal to around 390 V, and we will try to see how each resistor and capacitor gets calculated in […]
Simple 3 Phase Inverter Circuit
In this post I have explained how to make a 3 phase inverter circuit which can be used in conjunction with any ordinary single phase square wave inverter circuit. The circuit was requested by one of the interested readers of this blog. UPDATE: Looking for an Arduino based design? You may find this one useful: Arduino 3 […]
Arduino 3 Phase Inverter Circuit with Code
An Arduino three phase inverter is a circuit which produces a 3 phase AC output through a programmed Arduino based oscillator. In this post I have explained how to make a simple microprocessor Arduino based 3 phase inverter circuit which could be upgraded as per user preference for operating a given 3 phase load. We […]
3 Phase Induction Motor Speed Controller Circuit
In this post I have explained the making of a simple 3 phase induction motor speed controller circuit, which can be also applied for a single phase induction motor or literally for any type of AC motor. When it comes to controlling the speed of induction motors, normally matrix converters are employed, involving many complex […]
3 Phase Brushless (BLDC) Motor Driver Circuit
In this post I have explained how to make a simple 3 phase brushless DC motor driver circuit. The circuit employs the popular IRS2330 3-phase driver IC The presented idea looks simple since most of the technicalities is taken care of efficiently by the IC itself, it’s all about connecting the relevant pinouts with the […]
