Abstract

The induction motor is without doubt the most used electrical motor because of its unique characteristics. Induction motors are the most common motors used in industrial motion control system due to its low-cost, simple and rugged design. Induction motors drives are widely used to control the speed of conveyor systems, blower speeds, pump speeds, machine tool speeds, and other applications that require variable speed. In this paper a closed loop speed control strategy is implemented of Variable-Voltage Variable-Frequency (VVVF) method based on sinusoidal pulse width modulation technique (SPWM) for a three phase induction motor using a FPGA (Xilinx Spartan-3E XC3S100E). The speed control program has been developed in Xilinx 12.1 software using VHDL language. This implementation provides wide range of speed control for the induction motors.
