A three-phase variable frequency drive with field-programmable gate array (FPGA) control is investigated in this study. With increasing demands in electric vehicles, electric aircraft, Unmanned Aircraft Systems, and other applications, the high-performance motor drive employing variable frequency control with higher efficiency and reliability is an indispensable part of the ever-changing technological development. The main variable frequency control is based on the sinusoidal pulse width modulation (SPWM) technique with control hardware implemented by using a single FPGA chip. The proposed SPWM control scheme has been realized using a Xilinx Arty A7 development board. The system was tested with a 3-phase Infineon Trench FREDFET technology based on N-channel IGBTs. The control scheme regulates the AC output voltage precisely with a DC power supply. Depending on the operating voltage and frequency, the motor may be able to run above the rated speed to gain extra power. Both simulations and test measurement results are shown.
