This application note introduces how to implement a single-phase, off-grid inverter with all digital control in a simulation tool and provides a verification method for off-grid control in the PMP23338 TI reference design.
A common control method for off-grid inverters is multiple-loop control with a PI compensator. The output of the voltage loop is the reference value for the current loop. In this model, the common control method is utilized except that the voltage reference and sampling signal is the RMS value of output voltage.
In this mode, a three-phase voltage signal is given as the reference to PLL to generate reference angle . The configuration details for different operating modes of the unified inverter control are provided in Table 1. During the grid-following mode (STS is closed) of operation, PLL synchronizes with the grid voltage angle.
Three phase off-grid inverter is driven using Sine PWM. The sine references are generated using a Harmonic oscillator. The closed loop control is implemented in synchronous reference frame, by converting three phase quantities in d-q synchronous reference frame.
The primary objective of grid-forming inverter control is to maintain stable nominal voltage and frequency in the system irrespective of load changes. From Figure 10, voltage and frequency graphs of each of the phases, the results are consistent with the controller objective.
This article proposes a unified control for such inverters with current control, voltage control, and power control loops, including the PLL impact on - transformations as the building blocks. Small-signal-based linearization techniques are adopted to achieve the resultant linear time-invariant model.
During the outage scenarios, the inverter operating in grid-forming mode maintains the voltage and frequency in the grid, and the rest of the inverters operate in grid-following mode, collectively sharing the critical load in the system .

By identifying and mitigating unsafe operating conditions, the BMS ensures the safe operation of the battery pack and the connected device. It prevents overcharging, over discharging, and thermal runaway. To maintain uniformity across individual cells, the BMS incorporates a cell balancing function.
