Abstract: Provided are embodiments for a system and method for controlling a boost control circuit. Embodiments include a power supply and a boost converter circuit coupled to the power supply, wherein the boost converter circuit is operable to provide power to the load. Embodiments also include a 3-phase inverter coupled to the boost converter, wherein the 3-phase-inverter is operable to provide a 3-phase output, and a controller coupled to the boost converter and the 3-phase inverter. The controller can be configured to receive a voltage level of a power supply and a voltage level of a 3-phase inverter; compare a power threshold to at least one of: the voltage level of the power supply and the voltage level of the 3-phase inverter; and control an operation of the boost converter circuit to operate in a boost mode or a rectification mode based at least in part on the comparison.

Abstract: An air conditioning system includes a compressor including a motor, a condenser, and an evaporator; a drive including an inverter providing a multiphase, AC output voltage to the motor; a current sensor configured to sense an output current generated by the inverter; a controller configured to communicate with the current sensor and the inverter, the controller configured to provide a voltage command to the inverter, the controller configured to execute operations including: monitor the output current generated by the inverter; compare the output current to a threshold; determine the occurrence of an over current condition when the output current exceeds the threshold; when an over current condition is detected, reducing the voltage command to the inverter.
