Running a low-power 3-phase motor control application with high-power system is not very efficient. Our Low-Power High Voltage Motor Control reference designs shows how to efficiently control high-voltage motors in low-power applications.
This compact and cost-effective high voltage board is targeted to control various high voltage motors such as Brushless DC (BLDC) motors, Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors (PMSM) and AC Induction Motors (ACIM) in sensored or sensorless operation.
The designing of Boost Converter SMPS has been already discussed in the previous tutorials. In this tutorial, an open loop buck converter SMPS will be designed. The Buck Converter is also one of the topologies of the SMPS (Switched Mode Power Supply). These type of SMPS steps down the DC voltage unlike the Boost converters step up the DC voltage.
Everyone must be familiar with the term - Switched Mode Power Supply or SMPS. Yes, they are used in every personal computer. In fact, the Switched Mode Power Supply is widely used with many other devices. Once it is understood that what SMPS actually is, its countless applications can be easily imagined. 
The closed loop boost converter designed in the previous tutorial though had a constant and regulated voltage at the output but it could not be varied. For a stable output that Boost converter had an error detection circuit. The error detection was done by adding a feedback circuit which continuously checks the error in the output voltage and provided a regulated voltage at the output.
The ubiquitous nature of the internet is probably a major reason for making our lives the way it is today. In the present scenario, it has become a necessity of the modern world. Its capabilities are not limited to over knowledge regarding the usage of Wi-Fi. Another superior technology of Li-Fi is ultimately going to change our perception of the internet.
The open loop boost converter designed in the previous tutorial did not have constant and regulated voltage at the output. For a stable output, a Boost converter with error detection circuit needs to be designed. The error detection can be done by adding a feedback circuit which continuously checks the error in the output voltage and provides a regulated voltage at the output.
CUI’s Power Group has expanded its portfolio of external medical power supplies by introducing a new line of wall plug-in power adapters. The SWM6, SWM6-USB, SWM12, and SWM30 series can be availed with either North American or European input blades. Besides, these are all certifies to the medical 60601-1 edition 3.1 safety standards for 2x MOPP applications and 4th edition EMC requirements.
Tektronix, a leading provider of measurement solutions, is going to showcase the latest in optical test innovation for data center networking at ECOC 2017. This event is the largest optical communications exhibition in Europe, whereby more than 300 companies from 80 countries will help over 5,000 attendees to meet the demand for more bandwidth and increased data center performance.
We have seen various occasions when technology was mixed with creativity to demonstrate universal magic. In this tutorial of Adafruit, get ready to say “Lumos” as this exciting project, known as Raspberry Potter, syndicates everyone’s two beloved things—the open source Raspberry Pi and the magic Potter wand.
