DEVC-2003Power Electronics 1
This course introduces students to elements of power electronics. Students examine operational amplifiers in various configurations for measurement purposes, timer circuits, and DC power supplies (regulated and unregulated) as well as linear and switching supplies. In particular, students will learn the concepts of PWM voltage control with special application related to DC motor speed control. The labs give students practice in circuit operation, calibration procedures, as well as measurement and diagnostic procedures. Co-requisite: CIRC-2045 Electric Circuits.
