Abstract :
The conventional voltage source inverter for motor drive encountered severe problems such as high EMI, wide range of harmonics, heavy acoustic noise and low efficiency. Resonant DC-link inverter technique becomes dominate in solving the above problems due to its simplicity in both power stage topology and control strategy. In this paper, operation principle of resonant DC-link inverter is analyzed. A design procedure of this type inverter for high power application (200 HP) is presented. PSPICE simulation on the designed resonant DC-link inverter has been conducted to verify its availability for high power application. The improvements in motor drive by using resonant DC-link inverter is shown by comparing the PSPICE simulation results of conventional hard switching inverter
