Implementation of Unipolar PWM Modulation for H-Bridge Inverter
(pre-fall 2009 - but discrete components provide a better sense of how this circuit operates)
* Switching rules H-Bridge Inverter Basics Creating AC from DC VdcLoad A+ B+ A B Va Vb Can use identical isolated firing signals for A+, A, with inverting and non-inverting drivers to turn on, turn off simultaneouslyThe A+, A firing signal is a scaled version of VaThe B+, B firing signal is a scaled version of VbThe difference in the two firing signals is a scaled version of VabSame idea for B+, B
* VcontVtriVcontImplementation of Unipolar PWMVcont is usually a sinewave, but it can also be a music signal.Vtri is a triangle wave whose frequency is at least 30 times greater than Vcont.The implementation rules are:Vcont is the input signal we want to amplify at the output of the inverter.Ratio ma = peak of control signal divided by peak of triangle wave Ratio mf = frequency of triangle wave divided by frequency of control signal

*The four firing circuits do not have the same ground reference. Thus, the firing circuits require isolation.
