2.3.3 Current Sensing

Critical to attaining a closed-loop control system is accurate current measurement of the inverter. In this design, current measurement is done at two locations with different sensing technologies. The first location is on the grid output using shunt resistors. Because the output is high voltage and the controller needs to remain isolated, the AMC3306M05 reinforced modulator is used to measure the resistor voltage drop. To keep system losses low, the AMC3306M05 has a ±50-mV input range. When compared to other devices with a typical input range of ±250 mV, the total power loss across the shunt is significantly reduced.

Sizing the shunt resistor for this design is a trade-off between sensing accuracy and power dissipation. A 0.002-Ω shunt provides a ±50-mV output signal at the approximate ±25-A output inverter but also only generates 0.5 W of heat at full load. When choosing an actual device, select a high accuracy value to eliminate the need to calibrate each sensor path.

The voltage across the shunt resistor is fed into the AMC3306M05 sigma-delta modulator, which generates the sigma-delta stream that is decoded by the SDFM demodulator present on the C2000™ MCU. The clock for the modulator is generated from the eCAP peripheral on the C2000 MCU, and the AMC3306M05 data are decided using the built-in SDFM modulator.

The second location is a Hall-effect sensor TMCS1123, which is used to sense the current through the inductor. OPA4388 is used to filter the outputs and center all three phase measurements on the same 1.65 V offset reference.
