2. Make a small comparison between the thyristor (SCR), the powerMOS and the IGBT. (related to their application )
3. A push-pull switching stage (half bridge or full bridge) has a "low level" switch and a "high level" switch : how can both sides be driven ?
4. What are the considerations when putting active devices in series or in parallel ?
5. Draw the voltage and current timing diagrams for the circuit below with an inductive load :
7. A three-phase full-bridge switch can be used to generate an AC voltage. What kind of control signals are needed ? Draw a plot of the output voltages.
8. The H bridge is a good driver to control the speed of a DC motor. What are the possibilities ?
9. What are the possibilities to control the torque of the DC motor ? (some simple formulas might be helpfull to explain...)
10. The DC motor can operate in the so-called 4 quadrants. What does it mean ? What circuitry (block diagram) is needed ?
11. Explain ALL the methods (except : microstepping) to control the speed of a stepper motor .
13. What is the difference between bipolar and unipolar control of the DC servo motor ?
14. An DC electromotor requires "ramping of the speed". What is the target of it ? (explain on the torque-speed diagram)
15. a. Explain the principle of the SPVM (Space Vector Modulation) for the AC motor. b. What's the difference between SPVM and the straightforward PWM inverter ?
a. how can it be modified ? b. what could happen when the speed is increased too rapidly ?
18. What is the main physical difference between a normal MOS transistor and a powerMOS transistor ?
21. Design a circuit to control the heating temperature of a ricecooker/deep-frying pan (the so-called frietpot) .
23. Explain the following plot of the AC motor (and what is the link with the figure of Q16 ?)
24. An electronic power supply can be built either with a linear regulator or with a switching DC/DC convertor. What are the advantages / disadvantages of both ?
25. What are the possibilities (related to active devices) to build a single phase rectifier (AC/DC convertor) ?
27. What are the basic concepts of the Vector Control of the AC motor ?
29. What are the potential problems of the H-bridge topology ? How to solve them ?
30. The Thyristor (SCR) is a low-cost device and is used all-over. Where can it be used and where can it not be used ? DC/DC DC/AC AC/AC AC/DC
