Can a modified square wave (average square wave in each discrete time interval) be made from only full bridge inverter without transformer, LC filter?
I'm studying about inverter PWM with textbook.
The similar one with attached figure is in the textbook.
I can understand how the blue chopped square voltage is made.
In the text book, the red curve is ...

Painfully Yet Steadily Growing Oscillator Output
I have worked out an LC-based Colpitts Oscillator (sharing the schematics) that produces output which grows painfully slow from 10 pV to 500 mV in more than to 3 minutes and settles there. Despite ...

Usually AC quantities have the x-axis as time, but phase shifts are done in angles. How is there not a unit conflict?
This feels like a very specific and stupid question, but I have studied AC circuits for a while already. I just didn't think about it that much, but why is it established that the x-axis we use for ...

Can FOC be done with only one PID controller and a lookup-table that determines phase-offset?
Normally two PIDs are used to do torque-control with FOC -- one for the direct torque and one for quadrature torque.
The reason for this is described here:
Why are two PID controllers needed for FOC (...

How do I proceed when the current is Io = 2cos (wt)?
I have this problem:
And I would like some help with how to proceed.
