Abstract |
This paper describes a final-year undergraduate laboratory in power electronics, with particular detail on two experiments designed to illustrate several core principles of switch-mode power conversion and the basic details of transistor switching waveforms. The experiments are self-contained and do not rely on prior lectures. Theory is restricted to simple equations of circuit analysis so that the waveforms encountered can be analysed and understood with simple on-the-spot calculations. In the case of the transistor-switching experiment, the switching speed of the power MOSFET is slowed down so that the detail of its switching waveforms can easily be seen by timebase expansion on a relatively inexpensive digital storage oscilloscope. |
