The course can be completed by passing the final exam. The course grade can be upgraded by one by carrying out the offered homeworks. |
Learning Outcomes
The course gives the basic knowledge on signle and three-phase diode and thyristor-based rectifiers as well as active-switch-based rectifiers/inverters in such a way that the student can sketch the waveforms associated to the converters and solve the voltage/current stresses for selecting the power-stage components as well as knows their basic switch-control schemes.
