Introduction Power electronics such as inverters, DC/DC converters, and motor drives play a critical role in EVs, renewable energy systems, and industrial automation. Testing these devices under realistic, dynamic conditions requires more than benchtop equipment — it demands a real-time Hardware-in-the-Loop (HIL) simulation environment. CompactRIO (cRIO), with its reconfigurable I/O and embedded real-time control, is uniquely suited for […]
