Testing a power supply at different load currents and different input voltages is important, but it only shows part of the ...

DC microgrids have emerged as flexible platforms for integrating renewable generation, energy storage and controllable loads. Among these, constant power loads (CPLs) pose a significant challenge by ...

After designing a control loop within a power supply, motor drive, or almost any power-electronics product, engineers must establish that they have achieved their target specifications for loop ...

This article presents loop stability analysis in analog and digital feedback systems. It presents finding the analog loop stability experimentally and by using Laplace transform, as well as finding ...

Every plant in the process industry most likely has several control loops that do not perform well. Although there are many factors that may negatively affect control loop performance, a few of these ...

In the electronic field, an oscillator is a circuit capable of producing a self-sustained sinusoidal signal. In a lot of configurations, cranking up the oscillator involves the noise level inherent to ...

Learning the basics can ease loop tuning frustration and ensure stability. During plant operations, it seems that tuning control loops is an ongoing task, which can be a continual frustration to ...
