- Saturday December 8, 13:30 - 15:30
- Sunday December 9, 13:30 - 15:30
Saturday: Project Design, AC or DC, Lithium or Lead or ? A discussion of the may configurations that a conversion can take.
Sunday: A semi-technical discussion on the design of the AC or DC drive electronics. This guy <http://etischer.com/awdev/> really got into it.
6 conversions will be on hand to examine.
The discussion will 1) go over how electromagnetics works, and what we give to the motor (current) and it's effects, 2) go over how we create the variable current (PWM), 3) then introduce the circuits required to create the PWM (i.e. motor drive).

When you register classes, an account will be created at txrxlabs.org using your email address. You will be emailed login credentials. Most people who take classes with us just ignore this email, and that is fine.
Come to the lab in person and ask to see Roland or any officer. They can accept payment and give you a receipt. Some classes do have an enrollment cap, so it is better to do this sooner than later.
Most classes are for beginners, and clicking on the class title will take you to the class detail page. The right column shows prerequisites and requirements. If you mouse over them you will see what is required for that class. Some classes require a brief safety class which is taught 20 minutes before the class. Additionally, there may be fee notes which explain how much of the cost goes towards materials.
