Abstract

Plural series of digital pattern data are determined by PWMing a sine wave by a triangular wave and further classified into each series by the number of triangles included within a half cycle of the sine wave. An appropriate series of data are selected according to a frequency command. The selected data are further adjusted in response to a voltage control command. On the basis of the selected and adjusted pattern data and in response to a half period signal of triangular wave and triangle slope signals, a PWMed pulse is generated through a logical circuit. In the case where the generator is incorporated with an induction motor driving system, it is possible to control speed (frequency), torque (voltage), rotational directions, and torque fluctuations (phase difference) of an induction motor accurately at high response speed.
