Ecosense installs MIMO converter with 2 different DC sources as input at NIT Raipur
Ecosense installs Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) converter with 2 different DC sources as input at Department of Electrical Engineering, National Institute of Technology, Raipur, Chhattisgarh.
NIT Raipur, is one of the premier Engineering Collage of India committed to the challenging task of development of technical education by preparing seasoned graduates in highly sophisticated field of Engineering and Technology.
Multiple Input Multiple Output System (MIMO)
Multiple Input Multiple Output system is a DC-DC converter with multiple input channels and multiple output channels with some common components thus reducing the cost of the overall system without sacrificing the quality.
In Ecosense’s MIMO system, we used 2 different DC Sources as the input energy source. The two DC Sources can be connected individually with the MIMO at two input channels.
1. When switches S1 and S2 is ON, the buck converter circuit gets completed and we get the buck output at two loads marked as R1 and R2.
2. When switches S1, S2 and S3, S4 are ON, the buck-boost converter circuit gets completed and we get the individual outputs at load R1 and R2.
3. For charging the battery connect Battery at Vbat. Terminal, when switches S1, S2 are ON, the voltage V1 and V2 gets added and battery gets charged via Sbat2 switch making the circuit a buck converter circuit.
4. For dis-charging the battery connect Battery at Vbat. Terminal, when switches S3, S4 are ON, the battery gets dis-charged via Sbat1 switch making the circuit a buck converter circuit.
