MATLAB and Simulink empower engineers to design, simulate, and deploy control systems seamlessly from concept to real-time operation. With hardware-in-the-loop testing, embedded code generation, and ...

Hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) testing connects real controller hardware to a simulated environment, enabling engineers to verify systems safely and in real time before building physical prototypes. With ...

In 2012, Automation World published an article looking at the decision factors faced when choosing electric or pneumatic actuators. More than a decade later, manufacturing engineers and OEMs still ...

Average current-mode control, as shown in Figure 1, is common in continuous-conduction-mode (CCM) power factor correction (PFC). It has two loops: a voltage loop that works as an outer loop and a ...

Due to their versatility, ease of design, and low cost, flyback converters have become one of the most widely used topologies in power electronics. Its structure derives from one of the three basic ...
