The Institute of Marine Engineers, One Day Seminar, PEBB: The Future of Power Electronics

Abstract

Power Electronic Building Blocks (PEBBs) are power processors. A PEBB is not a specific semiconductor material, not a device, nor a circuit topology. It is the search for the most common denominator of all these things. It is not; "one size fits all." there will be several blocks that will fit together to perform the majority of every day power electronic jobs. Like a set of children's interlocking blocks, PEBBs will be a rational and simple set of blocks and procedures that most any designer or architect can use to build electrical systems.
