This paper presents a feasible implementation of a single phase inverter prototype via a Highly Efficient and Reliable Inverter Concept (HERIC) topology, which is connected to the grid through a phase and frequency synchronization system by means of a Second Order Generalized Integrator -Frequency Locked Loop (SOGI-FLL). The chosen topology for the inverter design -unlike a full H-bridge (FB) inverterincorporates two transistors in the output aimed at preventing reactive power transfer between the output filter and input capacitor when zero-crossing. Furthermore, proposed inverter implementation presents low leakage currents, and increases HERIC system efficiency. Moreover, the SOGI-FLL chosen for connecting the HERIC inverter to the grid provides -even under harmonic distortion-a fast and accurate frequency tracking. The prototype implementation can be divided into two parts: First, the power inverter HERIC is implemented, which holds four transistors MOSFET IRF730 (400V-10A) in a FB topology, as well as two IGBT transistors GP10NC60KD (600V-10A). In addition, in order to protect all the devices and ensure a well transistor conmmuation, four diodes type SF54 (200V-5A) are located between emisor and collector from all transistors. Second, the synchronization system is implemented on an Arduino Due digital platform.Index Terms-Power system interconnection, HERIC inverter, Frequency locked loop , Second order generalized integrator.
This work presents a novel HB-LEDs driver designed to solve some of the problems found in commercial LED lamp drivers. This driver includes dimming capability designed for intelligent lightning applications and incorporates a power factor correction method (PFC) to prevent negative effects of current distortion over the mains circuit. The circuit is composed by two main sections: power section and control section. The power section consists on a multi level electronic power converter where the first stage has a boost topology with a current controller performing the PFC function, based on hysteresis comparison. The second stage has a buck topology and it is designed to regulate the power delivered to the LED strings. Both stages are coupled with a digital controller which additionally serves to establish and track a power reference for the LED strings in order to vary the light intensity. A prototype was built based on the design for evaluation. The design implementation provided data that was analysed in terms of efficiency, harmonic distortion and power factor according to regulatory standards. The results were compared with commercial LED lamp drivers characteristics, obtaining significative improvement in energy quality indicators.
