MOSFET IGBT DRIVERS THEORY AND APPLICATIONS (PDF)

EBook Description: Modern Power Electronics makes generous use of MOSFETs and IGBTs in most applications and, if the present trend is any indication, the future will see more and more applications making use of MOSFETs and IGBTs.

This document provides a general introduction to motion control and is designed to help you get started with your own motion control system.

Motor Control Sensor Feedback Circuits (PDF)

Sensors are a critical component in a motor control system. They are used to sense the current,position, speed and direction of the rotating motor. Recent advancements in sensor technology have improved the accuracy and reliability of sensors, while reducing the cost.

Using DC motors in fighting robots

This page describes how DC motors work, and how we can use them to build the traction system of a robot. It covers both permanent magnet motors, and series wound motors (such as car starter motors).

Speed Controllers

The purpose of a motor speed controller is to take a signal representing the demanded speed, and to drive a motor at that speed. The controller may or may not actually measure the speed of the motor.

Field Orientated Control of 3 Phase AC Motors (PDF 24p)

The principle of vector control of electrical drives is based on the control of both the magnitude and the phase of each phase current and voltage. For
as long as this type of control considers the three phase system as three independent systems the control will remain analog and thus present several drawbacks.

Basic AC Drives (PDF 20p)

AC drives, inverters, and
adjustable frequency drives are all
terms that are used to refer to equipment designed to control the speed of an AC motor. The term SIMOVERT is used by Siemens to identify a SIemens MOtor inVERTer (AC drive).

Sidac application note (PDF 40p)

CPE is defined as any telephone terminal equipment which resides at the customer�s site and is connected to the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN). Telephones,modems, caller ID adjunct boxes, PBXs, and answering machines are all considered CPE.
