Space vector modulation (SVM) for BLDC motor

there are a number of reasons which will let the bldc draw a high current when you run it on your svm implementation. If you are using hall sensors, then your rotor position estimation could be ...

Can I convert a step down transformer to step up?

Yes, you can run most transformers backwards. But realize that you won't get much current at 240 VAC. The current rating is for the 12-0-12 side. This is a 24 V * 3 A = 72 VA transformer. Your output ...

Using a capacitor to handle the inrush surge power of a fridge

You're likely to need quite a large capacitor to start the fridge, but not as extreme as those capacitor banks you see people use for starting cars. But the first thing to check would be to try the ...

Duty cycle in Sine PWM and Conduction Losses in a MOSFET

Simply skip this Eq. (1) with its arcane definition of 'duty cycle', as this D(α) never appears further on, and you can proceed to where the equation (9) is derived. First, the authors introduce the ...

UPS cord has back-flowing current in it. What to do?

Your UPS is likely fine and does not leak much current. You likely don't need to do anything. If in doubt, provide a service manual with schematics for analysis. You can also try your neon tester to ...

Running a TV Using Only Solar Panel, Without a Battery

Quick observations: looks to be pretty well designed, though you haven’t put in didoes to protect the PV panels (not sure if they’re in the PV panels, they may be already fitted). You haven’t looked ...

Is it always given that ground has lower resistance than output even If output is far closer in an inverting nmos?

It's not clear to me what you mean when you say something is "close" to something else. Are you referring to physical distance, or electrical resistance? It saddens me to see you relying on ...

Is it always given that ground has lower resistance than output even If output is far closer in an inverting nmos?

The rule of understanding From my life practice, I have found that things in life are understood through similar but simpler things. The paradox is that things are not understood as things themselves ...

Is it always given that ground has lower resistance than output even If output is far closer in an inverting nmos?

Basically, yes. The output of the circuit like the one shown in your drawing is assumed to be connected to a high impedance (resistance with some extra caveats) input. This can be a problem if it ...
