Power electronics are firmly established in modern life. It uses power semiconductors like diodes, thyristors, and power transistors. Power electronics is considered an important, comprehensive sub-field of electrical engineering. The tasks of power electronics are switching, controlling, and converting electrical energy with power semiconductors at the most favorable efficiency possible. This group is designed to allow the student to analyze, design, and operation of power electronic circuits. Emphasis on single-phase and three-phase power conversion, uncontrolled/controlled rectifiers, generation of variable DC and AC, three-phase power inverters, etc. allowing a clear layout of the experimental circuits.
