Designing 3-phase motor driver

I designed quite efficient motor driver, so I am sharing
Hopefully, there isn't too much bullshit there, and this will help someone...
Keep in mind, that there are dedicated IC's made for this purpose also look at other designs as well. This design is quite primitive and buitl for specific purpose, so it may not suit your needs...
Got some files here, with probably a lot of junk (previous versions and intermediate versions, which I decided to not to include in this vid).

The boards are routed by hand without linking with sch. Sorry for that...

Please make more videos of this type. I am so happy find this video and your explanation of every part. You have done a very great job

[@mehmetcx]

the best video I have ever watched so far in the youtube!!! serious...no exaggeration

[@Telectronics]

Do you know If the compact high power spindle motors from china are BLDC motors ? It says 1.5KW, 220V, 400Hz/24000rpm and has at least 4 wire connections so must be star winding. People use them with a VFD for CNC machines. I ask because I want to build it on my own for learning experience. Should be similar to your circuit right ? Only Mosfets IRFP460 and rectified mains instead of 12V

Thanks for the video

Thanks for the comment I mean, you are welcome :)

Are the coils delta or strar?

[@shivanshuagarwal4349]

Hey, thanks for this coherent video! I had a question, for PWM the Arduino boards cannot provide high frequency like 30-40 kHz. But most high power motor requires this frequency, how can we achieve that?

[@IlusysSystems]

Arduino can proivide high freq PWM. I was using around 40 kHz in this project. To achieve this, you have to get CPU datasheet, and set up registers yourself. Alternatively, I am sure there will be some library to do this for variouc models for you so you don't have to dig through datasheet, but hey, you will have to dig through docs for library... I haven't used such library so I can't recommend any.

Thanks for this video. I 'm currently designing a 144 Vdc @ 100A 6 phase inverter (driving a 2 stators motor). I'm actually uncertain if I should galvanized (or isolate) the 144 Vdc of the 5 Vdc electronics (no commun ground) ? Can you share your thoughts on galvanization the powers.

[@IlusysSystems]

Hi, AFAIK in commercial applications only communication is isolates from mains voltage. Perhaps some drivers with expensive parts on low voltage side are isolated as well, but these tend to be optimized for cost, so there is little to protect. I guess your phase driver chips would be most expensive and likely have integrated low voltage inputs with external bootstrapping or support circuitry. So if driver has comm like serial or whatever, isolate that. If driver is directly connected to some PC output (would be wtf driver, but I don't judge) isolate that. Or do "risk assesment" and if there is nothing worth protecting, just don't do it.

Hi. I am designing a driver for 5kw ac induction motor rated 3000 rpm at 100Hz. It is operated by 48V battery and S2-60 min. Is it possible to use the design above, offcourse changing the mosfets ? It also has A/B Encoder for feedback.

[@IlusysSystems]

Not really, this is obviously low voltage design with Vmax less than Vgs of mosfets

[@muhammadmuslihalhamid2072]

hii sir, what kind of voltege source on your video sir ? and how much the voltage source sir ?.. thank you..

[@IlusysSystems]

Hi, I used 12V PC PSU for this

Sir , kindly advise to me that how to fix "TCCR4E, 'was not declared in this scope" in arduino issue issue . thanks

[@IlusysSystems]

I believe, that TCCR4E is declared only for arduino leonardo. other models may require different setup. what's your model?

Hi friend ! About the DEAT TIME , can you explain It to us???

[@IlusysSystems]

It's when both mosfets are supposed to be off, because they don't switch instantly

[@walmirsantos9026]

Can you send me schematics circuit in PDF? Congratulations for your job. Walmir Brazil

I have added file v3.pdf to shared folder. Sorry for bad organization.

hi i wanted to control the speed of the single phase induction motor what kind of modification can be made in this design?

[@IlusysSystems]

you need to change frequency. Look up VFD

[@bilalqasim2555]

@@IlusysSystems The 3 identical parts (drivers) in the circuit can i use one part of it? for single phase induction motor? Can snubber circuit can be used with microcontroller to control the speed as well? would really appreciate your help.

[@bilalqasim2555]

I need to use microcontroller with mosfet/igbt to control the speed thats why.

[@IlusysSystems]

​@@bilalqasim2555 I am not sure. it may be the case, that single phase induction motors will require relatively smooth sine wave to work properly. This driver is not quite equipped to do that. but possibly could be modified. perhaps only in SW but as I say I am not sure

You should be able to access it through YT, but I prefer to discuss here

@@IlusysSystems I am currently building a VFD for a three phase induction motor and wanted to seek help for it.

[@IlusysSystems]

@@shanawarchughtai6476 Mains voltage circuits are obviously more complex, because of necessary safety for human and also for componenct, because they are expensive. Unfortunately I don't have too much experience with these kind of circuits. Good experience that is, I have some bad experience though :) Only thing I can tell you as an advice is read carefully through datasheets and application notes. You should be able to learn to design good product that way.
