The major drawbacks of conventional diode or thyristor rectifiers are overcome by active power factor correction; this further provides additional benefits. Operating principles and features of single ...

The input stage of an off-line power converter usually contains an LC averaging filter. A common practice is to damp the LC filter using additional reactive/dissipative components. In this article, we ...

Full-wave rectifiers with capacitor filters are, without question, the workhorse — and the unsung hero — of the modern electronic world and for the gadgets we have come to enjoy. That being said, it ...

Emis of Sweden has a range of three-phase passive harmonic filters intended to minimise harmonic distortion with non-linear loads such as variable frequency drives (VFDs), uninterruptable power ...

[Electronoobs] is using some brushless motors to make a DIY wind turbine. His recent video isn’t about the turbine itself, but a crucial electronic part: the three-phase rectifier. The reason it is so ...
