Abstract

This thesis presents an investigation into the generic tools, hardware and
firmware, involved in power electronic converter control and feedback. The
aim was to determine the optimal controller architecture through research of
existing controllers. As soon as the architecture was established, design of the
controller commenced. Explanations for the various components selected were
provided. The design considerations when designing a printed circuit board
(PCB) with mixed signals was also presented. The theory behind the control
of a multicell converter as well the practical implementation of the control
scheme in firmware was presented.
