description The traditional Fixed Band Hysteresis Current Control (FB-HCC) though being widely used for the current control of grid integrated voltage source inverter (GI-VSI), has the drawback of variable switching frequency. To overcome this drawback, Complex Programmable Logic Device (CPLD) based switching scheme is proposed in this paper. The proposed method calls for a single reference wave and the control concept is to terminate the rising and falling inductor current (<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>i</mi><mi>L</mi></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>) either by the comparator or by the CPLD, based on the nature of its slope. Termination of the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>i</mi><mi>L</mi></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> with steeper slope by the comparator ensures lower current ripple, whereas the CPLD ensures constant switching frequency (<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>f</mi><mrow><mi>s</mi><mi>w</mi></mrow></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>). However, the <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>i</mi><mi>L</mi></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula> obtained with the proposed logic has a DC offset, which is corrected by modifying the reference. The basic concept, switching logic, and reference correction are thoroughly detailed. MATLAB/Simulink results are included to verify the proposed concept. The constant frequency operation of the proposed method is also validated in a 2 kW, 230 V, 50 Hz GI-VSI prototype.
