  • Abstract
    Several design features incorporated into a line of pulse-width modulated inverter drives are described. They include voltage and current protective circuits that provide SCR protection without fuses. A modified McMurray communication circuit is covered. Design considerations for high-voltage (460 V) inverters and paralleling of inverters are discussed. Finally, a modular packaging system providing good maintainability is described.
