Three Phase Inverter Circuit Three Phase Inverter Circuit - 120 Degree and 180 Degree Conduction Mode

We all know about an inverter - it is a device which converts DC into AC. And we previously learned about Different types of inverters and built a single-phase 12V to 220V inverter.  A 3 Phase Inverter converts the DC voltage into a 3 Phase AC supply. Here in this tutorial, we will learn about the Three-Phase Inverter and its working, but before going any further, let…

Galvanic Isolation – Signal Isolation and Power Isolation Galvanic Isolation – Signal Isolation and Power Isolation

An average household microwave oven operating at 110/220V AC can produce upto 2800V inside it, which is dangerously lethal. Besides that it also has a lower level AC voltage around 3.5V to light up the filament and a regulated DC voltage like 5V/3.3V for the digital electronics part like the display or timers to operate. Have you ever wondered…

Simple H-Bridge Motor Driver Circuit using MOSFET Simple H-Bridge Motor Driver Circuit using MOSFET

At the outset, driving a motor might seem like an easy task – just hook the motor up to the appropriate voltage rail and it will start rotating. But this is not the perfect way to drive a motor, especially when there are other components involved in the circuit. Here, we will discuss one of the most commonly used and efficient ways to drive DC motors, the H-Bridge circuit.…
