The concept about the mean mode for the RTE-Drive Time-stamped Bridges

Question:

I discovered that the TSB output give more precise current waveforms than SPS, but the voltage values does not correspond to reality (mean voltage values ?)

 

  • How to explain this ?
  • Why is it generally acceptable ?
  • Are the bridge in fact replaced par controlled interpolated voltage sources ?

Answer:

 

  • the voltages are "mean voltage per time-step. You have to be careful with using the term mean : "mean model" generally stands for a mean voltage on a PWM period
  • This is acceptable bcause the bridge load integrates this mean value to produce the current, which is the "sum" (integral) of voltage interpolated at each time-step and the rsult is good
  • This is correct. You have to add that the controlled voltage sources can work in a high-impedance mode when no gate drive is applied to he bridge.
