Basic layout and components

• It forms the interface between the electric motor (three-phase AC side) and the traction battery (DC side).
• Provides power transfer from the battery to the electric motor (drive mode) and back (braking mode).
• It generates output AC voltage of the required magnitude and frequency, controls the speed and torque of the motor.
• It is an integral part of the regulated drive.
