Hi, everybody.
Currently i doing a power factor regulator. The measuring circuit i use is power factor meter (PFM) by russell kincaid. And the controlling circuit i design myself by using PIC16F877A.
The working of the regulator:
1. Power factor of a load will be measured by PFM then produce the output voltage depend on the load.
2. So i use that variable output voltage to feed into PIC for controlling purpose.
But currently, i faced some problems. What should i use as a load that with different power factor? Beside that, anybody know how is the working of the PFM? I will very appreciate if you guys let me know the working of the PFM or give some comment to my project.
Thanks.
