BASIC CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:
 Here, Vs = DC supply.
 Chopper is switching device (we can
also use MOSFET, IGBT, SCR or
thyristor).
 Free wheeling (FD) provides a path
for motor current during the chopper
off time.
 Here, load is DC motor which can be
separately excited or series motor.
 Both current and voltage are always
positive (unidirectional operation).
OUTPUT WAVEFORM:
Duty cycle in single quadrant chopper fed DC drive:
where:
•TO N ​ = Time for which the chopper switch is ON
•TO F F = Time for which the chopper switch is OFF
•TO N ​+TO F F ​ = Total switching period
The output voltage (V0 ) is the average voltage applied
across the motor:
V0 ​=δVs​
SIMULINK:
WAVEFORM:
ADVANTAGES:
• DC chopper drive have high efficiency.
• Compact and lightweight.
• Fast response and fast switching frequency.
• Smooth and precise speed control by varying the duty
cycle.
• Since it operates in motoring mode, regenerative
components are not required.
DISADVANTAGES:
• Limited to one quadrant operation.
• High-frequency switching generates harmonics which can
interfere with nearby electronic devices.
• The output voltage and current ripples, requiring additional
filtering.
• Uses semiconductor devices like IGBTs and MOSFETs,
which are costlier than resistive controllers.
APPLICATIONS:
• To control the speed of DC motors.
• Industrial conveyor belt drives.
• Fans, blowers, and pumps requiring variable speed
control.
• Robotic arm movement in one direction.
• Traction systems.
• Rolling mills.
CONCLUSION:
The Single Quadrant Chopper Fed DC Drive is a fundamental power
electronic converter used to control DC motors. We studied its
operation, simulink modeling and application.
