DSP-Based Digital Controller for a Bi-Directional DC-DC Converter

The objective of this research is to design and implement a controller based on a Digital Signal

Controller (DSC) for the operation of the bi-directional DC-DC converter developed by Alpha

Technologies Ltd. As a result of this work, the intern must provide the partner organization with the

appropriate firmware to run the DSC and its proper documentation. To achieve this goal the intern will

work for a four-month period to complete the following five stages: system modelling, controller

design, DSC peripherals modelling and controller firmware development, DSC-Converter integral

simulation, and experimental implementation and tests. The development and use of modern

methodologies for implementing digital controllers for power converters will help the partner to

develop capabilities to upgrade other power conversion topologies as part of their family of products.
