This application note demonstrates how to accurately model and simulate an LC low-pass filter by measuring the impedance of its individual components. Using the Bode 500 and the Circuit Fit feature in the Bode Analyzer Suite, component characteristics are extracted and converted into SPICE models. The resulting simulated transfer function is then compared with real-world measurements to highlight…

Check out this new application note, which explains how to accurately measure the Equivalent Series Resistance (ESR) of DC-Link film capacitors using the Bode 100. These capacitors are critical in power electronics, such as inverters, where ESR significantly impacts performance. High ESR can lead to increased heat, power loss, and reduced filtering efficiency. The guide provides insights into the…
