Abstract :
An experimental evaluation of small two-phase induction motor drives operating with different inverter topologies is described. Results show that a PWM-based four-switch inverter, having only low-side switches, is attractive for high-speed low-cost applications where speeds greater than those that can be obtained using single-phase induction motors are required
