Electrical Chopper Control Strategies

  • For all the chopper configurations operating from a fixed dc input voltage V the average value of the output voltage VLdc is controlled by periodic opening and closing of the switches used in the chopper circuit.
  • The average output voltage can be controlled by different techniques as explained as follows :
  1. Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) technique.
  2. Frequency modulation.
  3. Variable frequency, variable pulse width.
  4. CLC control.
