REAL, REACTIVE AND APPARENT POWER COMPUTING USING FPGA AND PWM INTERMEDIARY CONVERSION

Catalin Damian, Cristian Zet, Cristian Fosalau

Abstract

In the paper, an instrument for simultaneous measurement of active, reactive and apparent power is presented. Its functionality is based on a PWM intermediary conversion multichannel analog to digital converter (ADC). The instrument is implemented on an Altera’s Flex10k70 Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) device for single phase. It fits roughly 60% of logic cells without any resource sharing algorithm. All the operations are executed in a parallel mode, providing a very short execution time.
