Hardware Engineer’s Guide to a Brushless-DC Motor Controller

March 1, 2022 by Prabhat Ranjan Tripathi

Image of machine symbols on different colors in a grid.

Brushless-dc (BLDC) motors have best-in-class torque to weight ratio, high efficiency, and effective control algorithms, which make them effective solutions in applications requiring high power density, such as cordless power and garden tools, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV), robotics, and others. Improvements in semiconductor packaging technology, motor control algorithms, and … [Read more...] about Hardware Engineer’s Guide to a Brushless-DC Motor Controller

Power Electronics Hardware Design for Manufacturability

December 1, 2021 by Grant Pitel and Adam Pitel

Image of a blue chip.

With a small, diverse team of engineers, Magna-Power Electronics can offer over 160,000 different configurations of programmable power supplies and electronic loads, spanning current levels up to 10,000 Adc, voltage levels up to 10,000 Vdc, and power levels up to 3,000 kW. This feat is made possible through tightly integrated engineering and manufacturing teams, minimizing … [Read more...] about Power Electronics Hardware Design for Manufacturability

Practical Considerations for Design and Layout of High Power Digital PCBs: Reliably Powering Complex Multilayer Digital Printed Circuit Boards

June 1, 2021 by Mikhail Guz

Image of a square with chip materials.

This article discusses practical aspects of powering complex multilayer digital printed circuit boards (PCBs) from high-energy sources and tradeoffs that are required to make functional and reliable boards. What can be found between two layers of copper in a multi- layer PCB? Most engineers would say dielectric or isolation. Evidently not only that but, according to … [Read more...] about Practical Considerations for Design and Layout of High Power Digital PCBs: Reliably Powering Complex Multilayer Digital Printed Circuit Boards
