POWER ELECTRONICS LABORATORY
EE P61 0 0 3 2 Semester VI Course Objectives This course is intended to enable the students to understand The basics of trigger circuits required for various power converters. Students acquire knowledge about the operation of various power converter circuits namely controlled rectifiers, choppers, AC voltage regulators and inverters. The course enables the students to do simulation of these circuits using MATLAB/Simulink and experimentally verify the simulation results in the hardware lab. Besides, the students are introduced with some of the application of these power converters. Course Outcomes Understand the operation of power electronic devices and its applications. Analyse the I-V characteristics of SCR, DIAC and TRIAC. Analyse the characteristics of MOSFET, IGBT and UJT. Illustrate the functioning of rectifiers and firing circuits. Distinguish the speed control of DC motor using converters. LIST OF EXPRIMENTS POWER CONVERTERS 1. Switching characteristics of MOSFET and IGBT 2.
