Interactive Power Electronics Seminar (iPES)
This is an educational module dedicated to basic power electronic circuits. The module includes DC/DC converters,
basic diode and thyristor converter systems, AC/DC inverter, space vector modulation and basic signal theory.
In the future there will be minor changes (mainly additions and corrections). The material currently is available
in German, English, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Spanish and French.

The following Java applets are part of the Introductory Course on Power Electronics
taught by Prof. Kolar at the ETH Zurich. The interactive and animated applets are
used as aid for teaching in the classroom and are displayed using a laptop and a beamer.
Furthermore, the applets do provide an opportunity for the students to experiment and learn
at home more efficiently.
