Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present a FPGA-base emulation system allowing us to test PWM strategies dedicated to automotive voltage switching inverters. This study is mainly focused on the behavior of the DC bus of this converter, especially the current in electrolytic capacitors. Indeed, the proposed emulator will be used in a health monitoring system of these components that are well known as the least reliable ones in a PWM Voltage Source Inverter (VSI).
