Patent
Efficient base drive circuit for high current transistors
TL;DR: In this article, a high current switching transistor controlling a load in its collector circuit receives from a drive circuit sufficient base current necessary to render the transistor conductive, thus energizing the load.
Journal ArticleDOI
A DC Motor Control System for Electric Vehicle Drive
TL;DR: In this article, a dc separately excited motor for electric vehicle drive is described, where the armature of the motor is controlled by a thyristor chopper, whereas the field is regulated by a highfrequency transistor chopper.
Patent
Secondary-side controlled resonant AC voltage regulator module
TL;DR: A secondary-side controlled series resonant AC voltage controlled module (VRM) as mentioned in this paper converts an AC distribution bus voltage to a low DC voltage for providing power to high speed microprocessors and integrated circuits, with minimal conduction and switching losses.
Patent
High efficiency circuit for rapidly charging batteries
TL;DR: An improved battery charger circuit for rapidly charging batteries by increasing the rate of battery charge acceptance through periodic battery discharge pulses during the charging process includes first and second chopper circuits coupled in parallel through an inductor across the DC source for coupling to a battery as discussed by the authors.
Patent
Apparatus for rapid charging using onboard power electronics and method of manufacturing same
TL;DR: In this paper, an apparatus for rapid charging using onboard power electronics includes a DC bus, a first energy storage device coupled to the DC bus and configured to output a DC voltage, and a first bi-directional voltage modification assembly coupled to DC bus.
