ABSTRACT:
A phase adjustment circuit for sensing the phase of the signal at the output of an inverter and for providing a signal to the control circuits of the inverter whose phase has been offset by a preselected amount. The phase adjustment circuit includes a zero crossover detector for sensing the crossover points of the inverter output voltage. A phase-locked loop includes a phase comparator which receives the signal indicating the zero crossover points and a feedback signal from a phase shifter. The output of the phase comparator is an error signal which is integrated and presented to a voltage controlled oscillator to change the phase of its output signal. The phase shifter combines the phased waveform out of the voltage controlled oscillator with a command signal indicating the desired phase offset to form a feedback signal for presentation to the phase comparator closing the feedback loop. At the same time, the phase comparator provides a signal to the control circuit of the inverter whose phase has been precisely controlled to lead or lag the inverter output waveform by the desired offset.
