SPWM WITH DC OFFSET BASED ON TOTAL ENERGY REDUCTION

摘要

Various examples related to sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) techniques for harmonic and electromagnetic interference (EMI) noise suppression are provided. In one example, a method includes applying a DC offset to a sinusoidal modulation waveform to change an average duty cycle of a switching circuit; and controlling switching of an array of switches of the switching circuit based at least in part upon the offset sinusoidal modulation waveform and a carrier waveform, thereby reducing total energy. In another example, a system includes a switching circuit with an array of semiconductor switches that control application of a voltage source to a load; and controller circuitry that can control switching of the array of semiconductor switches by applying a DC offset to a sinusoidal modulation waveform to change an average duty cycle of the switching circuit.
