  2. Pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse-width_modulation

    (In fact, PWM is equivalent to the sum of two sawtooth waves with one of them inverted.) [10] Class-D amplifiers produce a PWM equivalent of a lower frequency input signal that can be sent to a loudspeaker via a suitable filter network to block the carrier and recover the original lower frequency signal. Since they switch power directly from ...

  3. Reference designator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference_designator

    The reference designator usually consists of one or two letters followed by a number, e.g. C3, D1, R4, U15. The number is sometimes followed by a letter, indicating that components are grouped or matched with each other, e.g. R17A, R17B. The IEEE 315 standard contains a list of Class Designation Letters to use for electrical and electronic ...

  4. Carrier wave - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier_wave

    In telecommunications, a carrier wave, carrier signal, or just carrier, is a periodic waveform (usually sinusoidal) that conveys information through a process called modulation. One or more of the wave's properties, such as amplitude or frequency, are modified by an information bearing signal, called the message signal or modulation signal .

  5. Power electronics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_electronics

    The carrier-based PWM technique compares the AC output waveform, v c, to a carrier voltage signal, v Δ. When v c is greater than v Δ , S+ is on, and when v c is less than v Δ , S− is on. When the AC output is at frequency fc with its amplitude at v c , and the triangular carrier signal is at frequency f Δ with its amplitude at v Δ , the ...

  6. Space vector modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_vector_modulation

    Space vector modulation (SVM) is an algorithm for the control of pulse-width modulation (PWM), invented by Gerhard Pfaff, Alois Weschta, and Albert Wick in 1982. [1] [2] It is used for the creation of alternating current (AC) waveforms; most commonly to drive 3 phase AC powered motors at varying speeds from DC using multiple class-D amplifiers.

  7. Random pulse-width modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Random_pulse-width_modulation

    Electromagnetic interference (EMI) filters have been widely used for filtering out the conducted emissions generated by power converters since their advent. However, when size is of great concern like in aircraft and automobile applications, one of the practical solutions to suppress conducted emissions is to use random pulse-width modulation (RPWM).

  8. Duty cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duty_cycle

    Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is used in a variety of electronic situations, such as power delivery and voltage regulation. In electronic music, music synthesizers vary the duty cycle of their audio-frequency oscillators to obtain a subtle effect on the tone colors. This technique is known as pulse-width modulation.

    Figure 2 shows the top and bottom views of an air-cooled 10 kW-Vienna Rectifier (400 kHz PWM), with sinusoidal input current s and controlled output voltage. Dimensions are 250mm x 120mm x 40mm, resulting in a power density of 8.5 kW/dm 3. The total weight of the converter is 2.1 kg [10]
