Lookup table assisted pulse width modulation

Embodiments are directed to modulating a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal, by initializing at least one phase index to an initial value, establishing a set of values in a lookup table that correspond to data points for PWM comparator values that correspond to a given number of samples of a single...

Zusammenfassung:Embodiments are directed to modulating a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal, by initializing at least one phase index to an initial value, establishing a set of values in a lookup table that correspond to data points for PWM comparator values that correspond to a given number of samples of a single periodic waveform during a predetermined sampling rate that establishes a table resolution, repeatedly executing the following operations at the predetermined sampling rate: determining a value of a command signal frequency, setting a value to a jump factor equal to the quotient of the value of the command signal frequency divided by the table resolution, progressing the value of the phase index by the value of the jump factor, selecting a value of a commutation vector from the lookup table that corresponds to the phase index, and loading the value of the commutation vector into a corresponding PWM comparator.
