Low-Cost Single Induction Cooktop Solution – Employing Continuous Control Method
Currently, there is a plethora of low-power single induction cooktop products on the market utilizing pulse-width modulation (PWM) control methodology. The utilization of this control method has resulted in significant electricity consumption and heating time. Hence, EPI is pleased to introduce to customers a design solution for single induction cooktops employing the continuous control method from officially distributed brands such as HOLTEK, TOSHIBA, and others.
This solution is tailored specifically for single induction cooktops featuring hardware-based pulse pattern generation (PPG) functionality. When operating at high power levels, this feature efficiently reduces the insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) voltage (Vce) and electromagnetic interference (EMI). Under identical power source conditions, this low-cost single induction cooktop solution utilizes frequency oscillation techniques to adjust the resonance switching frequency of the induction cooktop’s IGBT. Consequently, as the power source approaches its peak value, the IGBT voltage (Vce) can be efficiently decreased.
By meticulously selecting and integrating components from brands such as Holtek, Toshiba, Wayon, JCSC, and others, EPI confidently delivers to customers a cost-effective yet highly efficient single induction cooktop solution.
