ENGLISH ABSTRACT: In the field of power electronic engineering, there is a need for a reconfigurable power electronic controller. Such a controller will enable engineers to stay focussed on their main field of study, not being side-tracked by the process of designing a high-speed digital controller to implement their ideas with. The design, construction and implementation of such a controller is presented in this paper. The design process involved defining the specifications of the controller and finding electronic components to satisfy them. After suitable components had been identified, a schematic design of the system was done. The netlist of the schematic was exported to a printed circuit board (PCB) design program, where the final layout was done and the connections between the devices routed. Before the PCB was manufactured, the firmware for the programmable logic devices (PLDs) was written to ensure that it fits in the selected PLDs of the system. After the PCB was manufactured and all its components fitted, it was tested and eventually used to implement the control of a shunt active power filter. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Wanneer navorsing gedoen word in die drywings-elektronika gebied, word ’n behoefte vir ’n heropstelbare drywings-elektroniese beheerder ondervind. So ’n beheerder sal ingenieurs in staat stel om gefokus te bly op hulle hoof studieveld, sonder dat hulle aandag hoef te skenk daaraan om ’n ho¨e spoed digitale beheerder te ontwerp om hulle idees mee te implementeer. Die ontwerp, konstruksie en implementering van so ’n beheerder word in hierdie tesis voorgelˆe. Die ontwerp behels die bepaling van die spesifikasies van die beheerder en die opsporing van elektroniese komponente wat hierdie spesifikasies sal bevredig. Nadat geskikte komponente gevind is, is ’n skematiese ontwerp van die hele beheerder gedoen. Die lys van die verbindings tussen die komponente (Eng. netlist) is na die stroombaanbord ontwerp program gestuur, waar die finale uitleg van die bord gedoen is. Voordat die bord gemaak kon word, is die programmatuur vir die programmeerbare logikatoestelle geskryf om te verseker dat dit in die toestelle wat in die sisteem gebruik word, sal pas. Nadat die stroombaanborde vervaardig is en al die komponente daarop gemonteer is, is die bord getoets en uiteindelik gebruik om die beheer van ’n aktiewe drywingsfilter te implementeer. 2011-09-27T12:44:08Z 2011-09-27T12:44:08Z 2003-04 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10019.1/16454 en_ZA University of Stellenbosch xvi, 179 leaves : ill. application/pdf Stellenbosch : University of Stellenbosch
