Abstract

This paper presents the principal features of the software modules developed to provide an interactive teaching/learning environment in Power Electronics that can be used by educators and students. The software modules utilize an object oriented programming LabVIEW that provides a highly flexible graphical user interface. The paper highlights the principal features the software components and illustrates a number of highly interactive graphical user interfaces of selected Power Electronics circuits and systems.
