Abstract
This paper presents a PWM-controlled three-phase inverter designed for controlling the speed of a three phase induction motor. Inverter has very important role as a power conditioning on the electric power system and industrial field. The speed of the induction motor can be controlled by changing the voltage frequency input of the induction motor. The three phase inverter is implemented by using a Power MOSFET and the PWM signal is generated by a Microcontroller. The inverter performace is measured by simulation and experimental test. Inverter circuit is simulated using PSpice software to investigate the inverter behavior and performance. The testing is conducted using two induction motors with different rpm specification. The testing result shows that the Microcontroller can control well the motor speed in no-load mode with various speed references.
