1 Single shunt phase shift overview

In the context of a single shunt topology, the purpose of the phase-shifting is to shift one or two duty cycles to be able to sample the current signal in the boundary zones instead of inserting a distortion window.

The benefits are:

  • Fewer commutations
  • Less switching losses


2 Phase shift principle

Boundary zone 1:

  • The firmware shifts on the right the smallest duty cycle by TMIN (minimum window time for sampling)

Boundary zone 2:

  • The firmware shifts on the right the most middle duty cycle by TMIN (minimum window time for sampling)

Boundary zone 3:

  • The firmware shifts on the right the smallest duty cycle and on the left the highest duty cycle by TMIN (minimum window time for sampling)

3 Peripheral usage

Phase-shifting needs the following peripherals to create the shifting. According to the advanced timer capabilities, one or two DMA channels will be used

MCU TIM DMA IRQ
F0 TIM1 DMA1_Ch5 DMA1_Ch4 DMA1_Ch5 HT and TC
G0 TIM1 DMA1_Ch4 DMA1_Ch4 HT and TC
F3 TIM1 DMA1_Ch4 DMA1_Ch4 HT and TC
TIM8 DMA1_Ch2 DMA1_Ch2 HT and TC
F4 TIM1 DMA2_stream4 DMA2_stream5 DMA_stream5 HT and TC
TIM8 DMA2_stream7 DMA2_stream1 DMA_Stream1 HT and TC
G4 TIM1 DMA1_Ch1 DMA1_Ch1 HT and TC
TIM8 DMA2_Ch1 DMA2_Ch4 HT and TC
L4 TIM1 DMA1_Ch4 DMA1_Ch4 HT and TC
TIM8 DMA2_Ch2 DMA2_Ch2 HT and TC
F7 TIM1 DMA2_stream4 DMA2_Stream4 HT and TC
TIM8 DMA2_stream7 DMA2_Stream7 HT and TC

5 Single shunt phase shift in the STM32 MC SDK

Single shunt is implemented by r1_ps_pwm_fdbk.c (and .h) processed when the STM32 MC project uses a MCU.
