Power electronics is a key enabling technology in essentially all electronic systems and is increasingly important in the grid interface of renewable energy sources and in efficient electrical loads.

Let’s continue our journey into power electronics components that are employed as switches in the switching regime while using some SPICE simulations to observe their general behavior. The switching ...

After decades of domination by silicon, silicon carbide (SiC) is replacing it as the gold standard in high-voltage power electronics, including in traction inverters at the heart of electric vehicles ...

When it comes to electric vehicles (EVs), battery technology makes most of the headlines. Automakers are on a well-chronicled quest to boost energy density and lighten up batteries that will power the ...

Bob Erickson, a professor of electrical, computer and energy engineering at CU Boulder, was recently named a CU Distinguished Professor—the highest faculty rank bestowed by the university. Known for ...
