Softcore processing in FPGA is a great option to get sequential processing in a RTL design. Adam Taylor ran a workshop on how to use Xilinx MicroBlaze in FPGAs. If you are interested in FPGA control for Power Electronics then a soft core is really useful. Adam is great at Xilinx FPGA and we’d recommend […]

This is the life of ELMG Digital Power Engineers working for our global customers. So five years ago I was biking around Berlin after having spent the week with my ELMG Digital Power colleague and our customers and their customers, testing 12MW grid-connected power converters where the control did not yet quite work properly. This […]

With inverter grid synchronisation the key problem is that the grid frequency can vary. In fact the frequency of AC systems around the world is different and is constantly changing. Aircraft AC systems run at 400Hz three phase. They do this to make the motors lighter with less iron due to the volt second integral being […]
