Typhoon HIL Blog

The latest developments in the X-ray medical imaging help improve diagnostic capabilities while reducing costs. X-ray generators need to keep up with the challenges imposed by new semiconductor and software technologies. Time and complexity of a “full-digital” X-ray generator development are significantly reduced by using HIL instead of a complex setup of X-ray tubes, high voltage sources, power loads and banks of various instruments, leading to faster development and innovation in the field.

In this blog, see how Typhoon HIL and SUPPLIER devices integrate to form a complete P-HIL (Power Hardware in the Loop) testbed solution for real-time control testing of microgrids. 

In this blog article, learn about the new possibilities for developing and validating electric vehicles through IPG CarMaker and Typhoon HIL Co-Simulation. Watch the included video to see a demonstration of the co-simulation concept and its capabilities. 

The Tokyo Metropolitan University Power Electronics Laboratory conducts research on improving the performance of passive devices for power electronics and power conversion circuits. Isamu Sugiyama from MyWay had the honor to interview Prof. Dr. Keiji Wada and his PhD student, Takaya Sekiguchi, on how they use Typhoon HIL in their research. Read this blog article to learn more on how introducing HIL into their research enabled achieving faster research results in their lab. 

In this blog, learn more about the controller test setup put together for teaching purposes at The Faculty of Technical Sciences of the University of Novi Sad, Serbia, which is integrating solutions from Infineon Technologies and Typhoon HIL.

 

 

We had the honor to host our long-time academic collaborator and friend, Prof. Kaushik Rajashekara from the University of Houston, in our main R&D Center in Serbia. We used this chance to record an interesting interview with him, so we can share with you more about his career path in research, current main research topics, and how he uses HIL in his teaching to help students gain valuable skills for careers in industry. Check out our video and blog to learn more.

Power electronics control testing that is quick, efficient, and thorough can be a challenge to achieve. To allow for hands-on evaluation of a real-time control testing setup that fulfills this spec, Typhoon HIL provides HIL in a Day exercises for interested parties. After this exercise was done with Viessmann, they observed faster testing and commissioning, with less time and money spent. Read more about their experiences in this blog.
