As an integral component of the Electric Drives Lab, Vishay Dale’s three-inverter printed circuit assembly (PCA) provides three 3-phase PWM inverters. It is used to perform a variety of experiments involving various AC/DC machines, motors, and rectifier systems in the Power Electronics Lab, based on the approach in the textbook Power Electronics: Converters, Applications and Design, written by Ned Mohan, Tore M. Undeland, and William P. Robbins; and the Electric Drives Lab, based on the approach in the textbook Electric Machines and Drives: A First Course by Ned Mohan.

This product is commonly used with Vishay product number 75771 (37-pin DSUB cable) and 87784 (8-pin encoder cable). Both cables are also used in Power Electronics Lab experiments.

Features

• Three completely independent three-phase PWM inverters for full simultaneous control of up to three machines
• 42 V DC-bus voltage to reduce electrical hazards
• Integrated three-phase power hybrid ICs to provide compact, high-performance AC motor drives
• Digital PWM input channels for real-time digital control
• Complete digital/analog interface with the DSP-based DS1104 controller
• Over-voltage and independent over-current fault protection for each inverter
