PWM Signal Generators: PWM, or Pulse Width Modulation, is a method of controlling the amount of power to a load without having to dissipate any power in the load driver.

An Introduction to Delta Sigma Converters: When looking for an introduction to delta sigma conversion I found that most explanations were from a very theoretical point of view. It took me a while to understand how Delta Sigma converters really work. So I decided to write this introduction for people who prefer circuit diagrams to reading abstract equations.

Sinusoidal PWM, current control and switching logic (PDF 125p): In contrast to grid connected ac motor drives, hardly variable in speed, power electronic devices (e.g. inverter), providing voltage supply variable in both frequency and magnitude, are used to operate ac motors at frequencies other than the supply frequency.

Switched Mode Power Supplies (PDF 153p): For many years the world of power supply design has seen a gradual movement away from the use of linear power supplies to the more practical switched mode power supply (S.M.P.S.).

FEATURES AND APPLICATIONS OF INTEGRATED CIRCUIT ZERO VOLTAGE SWITCHES (PDF 31p): The excellent versatility of the zero-voltage switches is demonstrated by the fact that these circuits have been used to provide transient free temperature control in self cleaning ovens, to control gun muzzle temperature in low
temperature environments, to provide sequential switching of
heating elements in warm air furnaces, to switch traffic signal
lights at street intersections, and to effect other widely different AC power control functions.
