FG Power Electronics participates in ECCE Philadelphia 2025

In two poster sessions, the department of power electronics presented the papers by Yan Figueiredo (“A New Three-Phase Buck-Boost Current-Source Converter with Bidirectional Switches”) and Lindemberg Luna (“A Novel Two-Phase Bipolar Coil-Based Bidirectional Wireless Power Transfer System”).

On the last day of the conference, Pierre Küster gave a presentation in the special session “Design Methodologies: Verification and Validation Techniques.” The presentation “Validation of the Use of Soft Magnetic Core Evaluation Kits for Comparing Different Core Loss Measurement Methods” addressed the question: “How can I measure core loss and how can I validate them?”

We would also like to thank our partners who are involved in the Core-Evaluation-Kit initiative and were represented with numerous measurements.

• KU Leuven – EnergyVille (Power Electronics Group)
• Cologne University of Applied Science (Power Electronics and Electrical Drives)
• University of Paderborn (Power Electronics Group)
• University of Texas at Austin (Power Electronics and Magnetics Lab)
• University of Bristol (Power Electonics Group)
• SUMIDA Components & Modules GmbH
• SMA Magnetics

The main topic of the initiative is to compare power loss measurement methods for soft magnetic ferrites, identify problems with the individual setups, and develop improvements.
