Would anyone have an objection to a new first principles post about now? I finally have my stuff together:

3x 1200V x 400A IGBT
4x 100V x 200A schottky diodes
1 500A kilovac contactor
4x 9A IGBT drivers
a double handful of PIC chips.
Advanced DC 8" motor.

All going into a '92 Geo metro.

I plan to build/program my own board and have a bolt together power section.

I'd be happy to write up and post my understanding. I'm still trying to wrap my head around ESR and ripple current for the capacitor bank.

Thoughts?

Hi ga2500ev, I'm planning to take almost the same approach; Final IGBT stage with the split power supply Open Revolt controller.
In order to not interfere with this one, you can open a new thread for your project. Do not forget to include a reference to your thread so people can fallow you and contribute.
