  • An introduction to switching current regulation making use of inductors. We test out the theory of stored energy in inductors, and utilise one to smooth current from a switching MOSFET. We then look into the need for a flyback diode in such a circuit, and finally consider the basic options for control schemes.
    What happens when:

    0:19 Why current control?
    2:17 How inductors will help
    4:23 Target current hysteresis (DCC)
    6:44 Does the theory hold up?
    9:12 The BIG problem with inductors
    11:12 How a single diode can fix the circuit (flyback diode)
    13:06 Controlling the MOSFET using PWM

    In the waveform where the voltage is going to 85 volts, that particular voltage has nothing to do with the inductor, as such. It is the result of causing the body diode of the MOSFET to avalanche. It stays at the avalance voltage until the energy stored in the inductor been discharged.
    Avalanching the diode can be destructive if there is sufficient available energy/power (they are generally rated separately, hence the slash). In some circumstances it is perfectly safe to allow it.
    Note that at all times the drain of the FET is positive with respect to its source.

    Thank you for proving that the driver I designed will work. I'm using an h bridge to isolate and increasing voltage on the secondary then running a bunch of 50w COBs in series, limiting the current to 1.5A. That 200ma window using a flipflop and comparators, maybe a little signal filtration and there's uninterrupted light, which is ideal.

    I just subscribed after watching your popular video about power supplies. I know enough to be dangerous.
    I'm commenting about an extremely popular problem that I'm sure would get many views.
    I (like thousands of others) bought a VFD and read in the manual that I should have "AC reactor" and an "Input EMC filter" before the VFD. (My VFD powers a 3hp motor that is normally 3 phase but the best I can do is single phase 240v).
    As for the AC reactor ebay has them for around $300 which is what I paid for the vfd. I've been told I can use a used 3 phase one if I use the outer 2 coils. Then I found a guy who made one for less than $20 by cutting an iron pipe and wrapping wire around it. He ended up with around 5% inductance, which is what is recommended.
    I am not alone with this problem. If you could made video about it I'm sure you would get everyone who bought a vfd to watch it.
    Should I buy one of those big 3 phase ones, could I make one with an iron torroid, how does one size a filter, how about just a surge protector, where do babies come from, what is the capital of South Dakota? All these questions keep me up at night.
    Thanks for your great videos

    Very nice videos, I like your step by step methodology in presenting subjects, subscribed instantly.
    The inductor is the analog compliment of the capacitor: a capacitor once charged would short-circuit (lose charge) if we touch its leads, an inductor needs its leads connected once charged so that it does not lose charge (and keep the magnetism not collapsing)!
    In a perfect world where the inductor was made out of a super-conductor, the current would keep on going. In this world we are in, however, we have ohmic losses, so an inductor cannot possibly compete with a capacitor in this area. A capacitor can remain charged with no losses, indefinitely. Therefore, in any power systems where you care about efficiency, you would use a capacitive design, as they do for mobile phones (the voltages are upped or downed with putting capacitors dynamically in series and parallel, and the current is supplied by how many charge transfers you do).
    In the design here, you are using a diode to keep its leads connected in the off-cycle, and this introduces a huge amount of losses. You see, a photovoltaic cell, an LED and a diode are the EXACT same devices (believe it or not!), with a slight change in bang gaps. The simple p-n silicon diode is like effectively having an infrared LED turning on every time it is forward biased!! The perfect solution here is to have a field effect transistor also on the top side, instead of the diode! You energise it when you de-energise the bottom one, so you could have it on a single wire if you use p and n types for the top and bottom transistors respectively. That way you have extremely low losses (a good transistor nowadays has a resistance at the range of milli-ohms when turned on, it has a negligible voltage drop).
    Also, for very high frequencies, or for excellent synchronisation of the two transistors, you could count the nano-seconds it takes to energise and de-energise the gate for each one, depending on the voltage you are supplying, and you could apply the correction time offset with a microcontroller.
    If you are wondering how you could connect both of the mosfets on a single signal, on a single wire, you could have a look at the videos I have uploaded on my channel regarding the CMOS not gate.
    Best regards :)

      @@electrarc240 Yes, they use them there... An inductor like that would be very happy in a closed circuit. It would be the equivalent of the quality we enjoy with capacitors: the charge is not lost, until you need it.
      For example, in a system like that, once you do the initial charging, you would leave the top transistor closed while opening the bottom one. The energy would just exist as a magnetic field, until you need it.

    An operational example:

    • @electrarc240
      @electrarc240  Год назад +1

      A simple linear regulator like a generic 7805 is the simplest way to get 5VDC@1A, I would use one of those as the final stage of a PSU, but they can only take up to around 35VDC on the input so preceding that you'd want something else. simplest would be a transformer with a rectifier such that the output would always be between 35VDC and maybe 7VDC. this wouldn't be very efficient or compact though. Really you want a switch-mode PSU which you could maybe achieve by rectifying the mains directly then feeding it through a circuit similar to this, but with voltage feedback rather than current. This wouldn't be isolated though so definitely shouldn't be used for anything a human could come into contact with. I'd look into buck converters, or forward converters if you need the isolation.

      Adding a capacitor can lead to a less uniform current waveform which makes this kind of very basic control less stable.
