Introduction
Chopper is a static device.

A variable dc voltage is obtained from a
constant dc voltage source.
Also known as dc-to-dc converter.
Widely used for motor control.
Also used in regenerative braking.
Thyristor converter offers greater efficiency,
faster response, lower maintenance, smaller
size and smooth control.

Choppers are of Two Types

Step-down choppers.
Step-up choppers.
In step down chopper output voltage is
less than input voltage.
In step up chopper output voltage is
more than input voltage.

A step-down chopper with resistive load.

The thyristor in the circuit acts as a switch.
When thyristor is ON, supply voltage
appears across the load
When thyristor is OFF, the voltage across
the load will be zero.

Methods Of Control
The output dc voltage can be varied by the
following methods.
Pulse width modulation control or
constant frequency operation.
Variable frequency control.

Pulse Width Modulation

tON is varied keeping chopping frequency
f & chopping period T constant.

Variable Frequency Control

Chopping frequency f is varied keeping
either tON or tOFF constant.
To obtain full output voltage range,
frequency has to be varied over a wide
range.
This method produces harmonics in the
output and for large tOFF load current may
become discontinuous

When chopper is ON, supply is connected

across load.
Current flows from supply to load.
When chopper is OFF, load current
continues to flow in the same direction
through FWD due to energy stored in
inductor L.
02/20/16
19
Load current can be continuous or

discontinuous depending on the values of
L and duty cycle d
For a continuous current operation, load
current varies between two limits Imax and
Imin
When current becomes equal to Imax the
chopper is turned-off and it is turned-on
when current reduces to Imin.

Step-up chopper is used to obtain a load

voltage higher than the input voltage V.
The values of L and C are chosen
depending upon the requirement of output
voltage and current.
When the chopper is ON, the inductor L is
connected across the supply.
The inductor current I rises and the
inductor stores energy during the ON time
of the chopper, tON.
02/20/16
41
When the chopper is off, the inductor

current I is forced to flow through the diode
D and load for a period, tOFF.
The current tends to decrease resulting in
reversing the polarity of induced EMF in L.
Therefore voltage across load is given by
dI
VO V L
i.e., VO V
dt
02/20/16
42
A large capacitor C connected across the

load, will provide a continuous output
voltage .
Diode D prevents any current flow from
capacitor to the source.
Step up choppers are used for
regenerative braking of dc motors.

Expression For Output Voltage

Assume the average inductor current to be

48
Performance Parameters
The thyristor requires a certain minimum time

to turn ON and turn OFF.
Duty cycle d can be varied only between a min.
& max. value, limiting the min. and max. value
of the output voltage.
Ripple in the load current depends inversely on
the chopping frequency, f.
To reduce the load ripple current, frequency
should be as high as possible.

Class C Chopper is a combination of Class A

and Class B Choppers.
For first quadrant operation, CH1 is ON or D2
conducts.
For second quadrant operation, CH2 is ON or D1
conducts.
When CH1 is ON, the load current is positive.
The output voltage is equal to V & the load
receives power from the source.
When CH1 is turned OFF, energy stored in
inductance L forces current to flow through the
diode D2 and the output voltage is zero.
02/20/16
97
Current continues to flow in positive direction.

When CH2 is triggered, the voltage E forces
current to flow in opposite direction through L
and CH2 .
The output voltage is zero.
On turning OFF CH2 , the energy stored in the
inductance drives current through diode D1 and
the supply
Output voltage is V, the input current becomes
negative and power flows from load to source.
02/20/16
98
Average output voltage is positive

Average output current can take both
positive and negative values.
Choppers CH1 & CH2 should not be turned
ON simultaneously as it would result in short
circuiting the supply.
Class C Chopper can be used both for dc
motor control and regenerative braking of dc
motor.
Class C Chopper can be used as a step-up
or step-down chopper.

Class D is a two quadrant chopper.

When both CH1 and CH2 are triggered
simultaneously, the output voltage vO = V
and output current flows through the load.
When CH1 and CH2 are turned OFF, the
load current continues to flow in the same
direction through load, D1 and D2 , due to
the energy stored in the inductor L.
Output voltage vO = - V .
02/20/16
102
Average load voltage is positive if chopper

ON time is more than the OFF time
Average output voltage becomes negative
if tON < tOFF .
Hence the direction of load current is
always positive but load voltage can be
positive or negative.

Class E is a four quadrant chopper

When CH1 and CH4 are triggered, output
current iO flows in positive direction through
CH1 and CH4, and with output voltage vO = V.
This gives the first quadrant operation.
When both CH1 and CH4 are OFF, the energy
stored in the inductor L drives iO through D2
and D3 in the same direction, but output
voltage vO = -V.
02/20/16
108
Therefore the chopper operates in the

fourth quadrant.
When CH2 and CH3 are triggered, the load
current iO flows in opposite direction &
output voltage vO = -V.
Since both iO and vO are negative, the
chopper operates in third quadrant.
02/20/16
109
When both CH2 and CH3 are OFF, the

load current iO continues to flow in the
same direction D1 and D4 and the output
voltage
vO = V.
Therefore the chopper operates in second
quadrant as vO is positive but iO is
negative.

SMPS benefits
Very wide input voltage range.
For example: most personal computer power supplies are
SMPSs - accepting AC input 90V to 250V.
Lower Quiescent Current than linear regulators
Less heat than an equivalent linear regulator.
Much Lower Green House Gas emissions
Overall Smaller geometry components are used
Lighter Weight
Lower running cost - Lower total cost of ownership (TCO).
Battery operated devices - longer lifetime.
02/20/16
118
SMPS disadvantages
Significant Output Ripple
May need a post filter to decrease ripple
May need a secondary linear low drop out
regulator to ensure damaging voltage transients
keep away from voltage sensitive elements electronics.
An SMPS May add too much cost.
How much is too much?
