Abstract :
In recent years, an energy issue is becoming serious or severe. Therefore, power electronics technology is one of the key technologies since this technology can deal with electric energy efficiently, and some company tries to introduce this technology. Our company offers the opportunity to study this technology such as a circuit topology, designs of inductor or transformer with practical experiments. In this paper, we present an effort of our company for power electronics education and introduce educational kits from an associated company.
