REMOTE SYSTEM OF DESIGN AND TEST OF DC-DC CONVERTERS

摘要

The increasing interest in remote test and experimentation has allowed the incorporation to the educative system of new tools that improve the classic methods of education. In the field of the Power Electronics, the possibility of access of the engineering student through the development of this type of tools to equipment generally of high cost, and therefore of low availability in the educational laboratories, is very important. This work shows a Remote System of Design and Test of DC/DC Converters (RSDTC) that can be used either locally or remotely. The developed system is based on a test bench manufactured by Hewlett-Packard. Taking as its starting point this equipment, a software application has been developed using the visual programming language "LabVIEW". This programming tool combined with CGI (Common Gateway Interface), allows the developed analysis system to be executed remotely using a web browser.
