Abstract :
A new design for an intelligent soft-start embedded controller for low-voltage three-phase induction motors is presented. The design is based on timer-driven semiconductor switching logic and on a four-rule fuzzy system, all implemented on a low-cost microcontroller. Inductive behavior is well-balanced using voltage sensing closed-loop, providing input to the fuzzy controller. The time-ramp is very predictable and independent of motor load.
