Let's have a look at how the power circuitry is implemented in a commercially available motor drive.
Quite Universal Circuit Simulator(QUCS) is a open source SPICE based circuit simulator.
Voltage reflections is a phenomenon where a propagating voltage pulse arrives at the load and returns back to the source due to high dV/dt. This post explains the theory behind it and how to handle it.
Transformers and inductors are important in all areas of electronics. Lets go over the basic operating principles, as well as some methods used when designing such components.
Let's clarify the difference between the novelty of silicon carbide devices compared to the traditional silicon based ones
