Driver and controller
The Control and Feedback stages analyse signals from the current sensors mounted at the motor output, measure the temperature of sensors and control the driver for the conversion semiconductors. For Semiconductor modules, this board will be a pcb mounted close to or on the module, for discrete it could be on the main board.
Motor
Electric motors can overheat in the event of stalling, with the risk of permanent damage. An effective way to protect the motors is to use a limit temperature sensor (PTC) on the windings of the motor which can be monitored by the controller. Temperature increases in the motor caused by stalling can be directly measured by the controller and the power to the motor can be reduced or switched off to prevent damage.

Protection
Thermistors acting as inrush current limiters are a low cost solution to this problem whilst input varistors are used to provide surge protection against voltage spikes on the input.
Learn MoreInput filtering
EMC input filter requirements include limitation of conducted and radiated emissions, immunity to transients and surges on the power lines, and immunity to levels of external electromagnetic radiation and electrostatic discharge.
Learn MoreRectification
Each AC input phase is rectified by 3 diodes (top diode in the positive direction and the low side diode of the other two phases) so that the peak of the negative half cycle appears positive.
Learn MoreDC-Link
A DC-link capacitor is fitted at this point to provide a low impedance path for high frequency switching currents and to provide energy storage.
Learn MoreConversion
At the conversion stage of a variable frequency drive, the DC voltage is converted into an AC voltage at a given but variable voltage and frequency to drive the motor.
Learn MoreThermal management
In a drive, the heatsink’s role is to cool the semiconductors and DC link capacitors and prevent overheating.
Learn MoreOutput filtering
The output stage of a drive takes a three-phase AC output with variable frequency and amplitude for fine speed and torque control and filters it to minimise EMI and provide reliable operation of the power converter and load.
