Shown is a block diagram of an electric-vehicle traction inverter. Wide-bandgap (WBG) switch and powertrain integration are among the key technologies supporting high-power-density inverter design.

There are several reasons to use a three-phase inverter to run a single-phase induction motor, including isolation from variable power grids, reduction of peak currents and elimination of the ...
