Abstract

The project of protection system is not new. But the FPGA based
motor protection system is new in AIUB. In this project a central
control based & automated voltage protection system was
designed that will provide protection from voltage fluctuation
beyond a controllable protected range of tolerance for an array of
industrial loads. This protection system can be controlled by the
operator depending on the status signal of motor. The entire
design has been coded in VHDL language, which is then
synthesized, placed-and-routed and implemented in a FPGA
prototype board. The programming file generation is performed in
Xilinx ISE 5.1i web pack design environment. The system has
been simulated in Modelsim XE II 5.1 simulator and all other tasks
i.e., place-and-routes, pin assignment are synthesized in Xilinx ISE
7.1i web pack design environment. A Pegasus circuit board of
Xilinx Spartan2 XC2S50-PQ208 has been used to implement the
system into hardware.
