Review for Test 2 |
|
Nov 29 |
|
Test 2:
Write Your Own Test
The written test should
be enough for 80
minutes.
It should be based on
System Thinking and
Design Thinking.
Adopt a System:
The test should start
with a block diagram of
a power electronics
system, like Buck,
Boost, Motor Drive, etc.
All question should be
about the adopted
system.
Questions may be a mix
of design-, analysis-,
and knowledge-based.
You may include the
needed formulas.
The test should be typed
and organized well.
Questions and answers
will be assessed.
Good written test can
replace Test 1, if
needed. |
