CONSULTING
At Poek Labs, we provide expert consulting in digital control and power electronics systems. Our main customers include startup companies and research institutions.
Our consulting services primarily help customers develop digital control algorithms for power conversion systems ranging from a few kilowatts to hundreds of kilowatts.
We serve our business clients by providing power electronics control consulting, electronic power control solutions, and custom algorithm designs on an as-needed basis.
OUR CONSULTING SERVICES INCLUDE
Control Design Strategy
Control design strategies for power electronics converters, from modelling and stability analysis through implementation.
Certifications
Certification compliance testing for control algorithms in grid-connected inverters, covering anti-islanding detection, THD/harmonic mitigation, and fault ride-through.
SIL / HIL
Development of Software-in-the-Loop (SIL) tools and models for Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL).
Applications & Projects
Residential energy storage systems, battery chargers, commercial multiport converters, and residential and commercial solar inverters.
HOW WE WORK / CONSULTING ENGAGEMENT OPTIONS:
Necesitamos definir también cómo un cliente puede contratar los servicios. Por ejemplo, si ofrecen asesorías técnicas por videollamada, consultoría remota, visitas presenciales a la empresa, consultoría por proyecto o algún tipo de soporte continuo. También sería importante definir si quieren mostrar tarifas para alguno de estos servicios o si prefieren que todos se manejen mediante cotización.
MAIN TOPOLOGIES IN WHICH POEK LABS HAS EXTENSIVE EXPERTISE
Single-Phase Inverters (1φ VSI)
- Classical H-bridge topology
- Neutral-point clamping (3L-TNPC)
Split-Phase Inverters (Split-φ VSI)
- Two legs of neutral-point clamping (3L-TNPC) with split capacitors
- Three-leg VSI, with one leg per phase and one neutral leg
- Three-leg VSI, with two half-bridges with split capacitors and one leg for balancing the voltages
DIFFERENT MODELLING TECHNIQUES
DIFFERENT TYPES OF CONTROLLERS DEVELOPED
Proportional-Integral Controllers (PI)
-
Anti-windup for the integral terms
- Clamping (conditional integration)
- Back-calculation
- Saturation protection
Phase-Locked Loops
- Classical and SOGI-based synchronous reference frame (SRF-PLL)
RST Control
- The most generalized pole-placement controller structure
Anti-islanding Techniques
- Based on signal injection
Active Damping (AD)
- Full-state feedback active damping
- Capacitor current feedback
- Capacitor voltage feedback (with an HPF) — most common
Droop Controllers
- Inductive droop
- Resistive droop
SOC Battery Control Balancing
- Over the droop control
DIFFERENT TYPES OF MODULATION STRATEGIES
Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM)
- Classical for single-phase and three-phase inverters
-
Single-phase inverters
- Bipolar
- Unipolar continuous modulation
- Unipolar discontinuous symmetric modulation
- Unipolar discontinuous asymmetric modulation
Space Vector Modulation (SVM)
- For three-phase inverters (VSI and CSI)
Phase-Shift Modulation (PSM)
- For dual-active bridge (DAB) converters
- Single-phase shift (SPS) modulation
- Dual-phase shift (DPS) modulation
- Triple-phase shift (TPS) modulation
DEVELOPMENT
Custom control solutions built around your technical challenges.
Poek Labs works directly with your engineering team to design and implement digital control solutions tailored to your project requirements.
We support the full development process, from system modeling and simulation to rapid prototyping and hardware validation.
- Control algorithm development in C/C++, MATLAB, and Octave
- DC/DC, grid-tied, and off-grid inverter optimization
- Real-time control integration and hardware validation
- Troubleshooting and tuning for improved system performance
ADVICE
Strategic technical guidance for better engineering decisions.
Our advisory consulting service is designed for teams that need expert direction on how to approach, structure, or improve a control system without requiring full development outsourcing. Through specialized meetings and technical reviews, we help clients move forward with clarity and confidence.
- Evaluating control system architecture and design strategy
- Defining technical approaches for implementation and optimization
- Reviewing existing solutions and identifying improvement opportunities
- Supporting critical engineering decisions throughout project development
