  2. Braking chopper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braking_chopper

    Braking chopper This arises, for example, when a magnetized motor is being rotated by an overhauling load and so functions as a generator feeding power to the DC voltage intermediate circuit. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] They are an application of the chopper principle , using the on-off control of a switching device.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chopper_(electronics)

    Auto-zero amplifiers use a secondary auxiliary amplifier to correct the input offset voltage of a main amplifier. Chopper-stabilized amplifiers use a combination of auto-zero and chopper techniques to give some excellent DC precision specifications. [2] Some example chopper and auto-zero amplifiers are LTC2050, [3] MAX4238/MAX4239 [4] and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DC_motor

    Advantages of a brushed DC motor include low initial cost, high reliability, and simple control of motor speed. Disadvantages are high maintenance and low life-span for high intensity uses. Maintenance involves regularly replacing the carbon brushes and springs which carry the electric current, as well as cleaning or replacing the commutator ...

  9. AC-to-AC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC-to-AC_converter

    Any dynamic braking operation required for the motor can be realized by means of braking DC chopper and resistor shunt connected across the rectifier. Alternatively, an anti-parallel thyristor bridge must be provided in the rectifier section to feed energy back into the AC line.
