Here we report our effort to integrate microcontroller to control AC current-generating MOSFET H-bridge circuit-based device. We have carried out the tests of the potential application of the induction heating generated by the device for material synthesis by controlling the variation of AC current at constant frequency value. The results showed that at the constant frequency value, the heating process depended on the amount of AC current. The different responses of different kind of materials to the different frequencies at constant AC current value have also been observed. The results provide the fundamental base for further development of induction heating furnace using microcontroller based AC current generation device. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
