Modular power inverter with software control

摘要

A power inverter is provided comprising: a control board comprising: a processor that generates an AC waveform from a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal according to instructions or data stored in a memory associated with the processor; and an output at which a signal having the AC waveform is provided; a power supply module that is connected to the control board, comprising: an input connected to the output of the control board at which the AC waveform signal is provided; and an output at which an AC power signal is provided on a channel of the power inverter.

1. A power inverter comprising:
a control board comprising:
a processor that generates an AC waveform from a pulse width modulation (PWM) signal according to instructions or data stored in a memory associated with the processor; andan output of the control board at which a signal having the AC waveform is provided; a power supply module (PSM) that is connected to the control board, comprising:
an input connected to the output of the control board at which the AC waveform signal is provided; andan output at which an AC power signal is provided on a channel of the power inverter;a case that surrounds the control board, the PSM, and a second PSM, the case comprising, on its exterior, a power connector that provides power on a plurality of independent power channels, and a control board connector, wherein
each PSM has a predefined power rating at which it can provide power indefinitely; andeach PSM can provide power at greater than the predefined power rating if a condition is met.
