3. Introduction ARM Processor is one of the most used controllers, its cortex version having many of a DSP’s features Its PWM module feature can be used for control signal generation of power electronic switches The control of switches can then be used for control of a wide range of power electronic converters or implement a dedicated power converter for real time modeling of a motor drive 3 Real Time Simulation in a Power Electronics based System

6. LS[1]: “ Real Time Emulation Environment for Digital Control Development” Abstract: A real time simulation of an Induction Motor Drive is built using a single mother board with multiple processor system, ie, multiple DSPs. DSP A, DSP B, DSP C are used for controller, motor real time simulation model and DAQ operations respectively. DSP A acts as the master while the others as slaves. DSP A executes the control algorithm and after writing the voltages produced by previous cycle to real and simulation systems, reads the new demanded values from user. The actual machine is thus replaced by a Virtual one, the real time model programmed in DSP B. Note LS - Literature Survey 6 Real Time Simulation in a Power Electronics based System

7. LS [2]: “Real Time Digital Implementation of Power Electronic building blocks” Abstract: Two major applications of Real Time Simulation are rapid control prototyping and hardware-in-the-loop simulation. Rapid control prototyping of the controller used for generation of control signals (required to turn on and off the power electronic switches) has been done using a DSP, F24DSP. The systems contains a DSP module, a power converter module, Interface electronics module, reusable load module, signal conditioning module (sensors, potential dividers etc) Note LS - Literature Survey 7 Real Time Simulation in a Power Electronics based System

8. L S [3]: “Electrical Load Emulation using Power Electronic Converters” Abstract: “Load Emulation” is used to generate dynamic and realistic environments required for testing purposes of a prototype/system. It is the concept of using a power electronic converter to mimic a variety of loads which could be a motor/ generator. L-C-L topology filter is used between the power grid/source VSI and the emulator inverter. A DSP and FPGA are used for digital control of load emulator.
