A Z-source Inverter (ZSI) is a DC-to-AC converter that can perform both buck and boost functions as a single stage. A unique attempt of ZSI is the shoot through state, by which two switches of the ...

Alex Lidow and Marco Palma look at the value of high-frequency motor drives, their advantages and the capabilities of GaN technology, which make them suitable for today’s demanding applications.

Adjustable speed drives (ASDs) or variable speed drives (VSDs), also called variable frequency drives (VFDs), typically control a motor's velocity or torque output. Most adjustable frequency drives ...

You can divide the world of electronic motor drives, which control the speed, torque, direction, and resulting horsepower of a motor, into two categories: ac and dc. An ac drive controls ac induction ...

GaN inverter achieves 11 ARMS continuous current at 48 V and 100 kHz PWM The next generation of humanoid robots ...

EPC has come up with a 3-phase BLDC motor drive inverter reference design which operates from an input supply voltage range of 14 V to 60 V and delivers up to 60A output current. This voltage range ...

Variable frequency drives (or VFDs) are widely used throughout industry to provide adjustable speed control of ac motors. Although modern versions are relatively simple to install and operate, VFDs ...

The enormous flexibility of MOVIDRIVE® B drive inverters allows them to control an array of asynchronous AC drives or synchronous servo drives. MOVIDRIVE® B inverters are a modular system, allowing ...
