Sustainable Power Electronics Laboratory

SPELLis a state-of-the-art Power Electronics facility at the Indian Institute of Science, where futuristic technologies are developed and transferred to relevant industries. In power electronics we process electric power through SEMI-CONDUCTOR SWITCHES. These power devices (MOSFET or IGBT) are at the heart of any power electronic converter. In many of our work we try find new topologies (configuration of switches) and modulation strategy (switching scheme) that improve power conversion efficiency and reduce size and cost. We emphasize on DESIGN, FABRICATION & TESTING of state-of-the-art and advanced POWER CONVERTERS. We do work on cutting edge embedded solutions for power electronic applications.
