Modeling, Simulating, and Generating Code for a Solar Inverter

Chris Clearman, Texas Instruments
Jonathan LeSage, MathWorks
Brian McKay, MathWorks

Overview

In this webinar, learn how you can quickly design a new power control system using Simulink and Embedded Coder^® from MathWorks and the C2000™ platform of microcontrollers from Texas Instruments. We walk through a solar inverter demo, where we design and simulate a maximum power point tracking (MPPT) control in Simulink, and then deploy the control with Embedded Coder to a Texas Instruments C2000 Piccolo™ MCU.

Designed for high-performance power electronic control applications, TI’s C2000™ MCUs have been used in a wide range of industrial and automotive markets for over 20 years. MathWorks provides software that enables modeling, simulation, and code generation of control systems using Simulink^® and Embedded Coder^®. Embedded Coder support for TI’s C2000 platform of microcontrollers includes automated build and execution, processor-optimized code including motor control and IQMath libraries, and the ability to perform processor-in-the-loop (PIL) tests with execution profiling.
