Two actions will be developed in this set of themes:

 

1. Pulses Width Modulation Strategies

The development of new modulation strategies, started under the impulse of VILAIN Jean-Paul in the 1980's, was always a strong asset of the LEC, going upto transfers of patent licences and product design (audio amplifer with cutting together with the Company BOUYER).


Amplifer with cutting.

Originally developed on single-phase applications, these techniques spread with the supply of three-phase systems. The constraints are unchanged, namely: to obtain a wave form of controlled quality, by minimizing the stress of the components and certain additional criteria (acoustic noise, disturbance of the continuous bus…).
