Description

This reference design provides an overview on how to implement a bidirectional three-level, three-phase, SiC-based active front end (AFE) inverter and PFC stage. The design uses a switching frequency of 50 kHz and an LCL output filter to reduce the size of the magnetics. A peak efficiency of 99% is achieved. The design shows how to implement a complete three-phase AFE control in the DQ domain. The control and software is validated on the actual hardware and on hardware in the loop (HIL) setup.
