3-day Digital Power / Control Seminar

http://focus.ti.com/docs/training/catalog/events/event.jhtml?sku=4DW102128

This course has received EXCELLENT reviews both in the US and in Europe.  Highly recommended for anyone doing power conversion and also an excellent use of time for those interested in general control theory and using C2000 tools to create your application.

 

Day 1: Introduction to Digital Power   

Introduction to digital power

Topologies used in the workshop (Buck, Synchronous Buck, Flyback)

Closed loop control of these topologies in analog and digital domains

The C2000 family’s development tools & features (GPIOs, PWM, over-current trip zones, ADC, etc.)

Code Composer Studio and JTAG emulation

TI and Biricha template libraries

DSP program structure

Fixed point number representation and IQMath

Using the  Biricha Digital's Digital Power Library to set up interrupts,PWMs, and ADCs  without extensive programming

Soft-Start and Soft-Stop without extensive programming

 

 

Day 2: Digital PSU and Controller Design Using the C2000   

Review of analog power supply design fundamentals

Review of analog compensator design (Type II & Type III) for voltage and current mode control

Detailed discussion of digital power supply design

Implementing a simple digital controller for your digital power supply in F2808 and Piccolo

Digital voltage mode controller design

Stand alone power supplies and flash programming

 

Day 3: Running Multiple Power Supplies and Peak Current Mode 

Running multiple power supplies 

Review peak analog peak current mode design

Analog slope compensation and sub-harmonic oscillation

Digital peak current mode controller design

Using Piccolo B's CLA functionality

Digital slope compensation using the CLA

Phase margin erosion in digital domain due to delays

ADC quantization and finite word length issues
