Özet

This study aims to elucidate the development and construction of a durable induction cooktop, with key considerations including efficiency, power customization, and safety features. The intricate processes involved in crafting a 3.5 kW induction burner are thoroughly examined, encompassing simulations for quasi-resonant inverters, the meticulous selection of induction coils and capacitors, the implementation of practical Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC) filtration, pulse width modulation (PWM) driving techniques, and the integration of protection mechanisms. Leveraging an ARM-based microcontroller enabled the attainment of diverse objectives such as Zero-Voltage Switching (ZVS), safeguarding IGBTs, facilitating user interaction through a user-friendly interface, and enabling load detection capabilities. Furthermore, the capability to gauge and adjust output power based on user preferences was incorporated. Subsequently, rigorous testing was conducted to evaluate the functionality and applicability of the device in real-world scenarios.
