Interactive engineering lab

Component library

Built for students, teachers and the curious. Open a component, change its real electrical parameters, and watch the 3D model and characteristic curves respond as you go.

M3∿
Electrical machines

3-phase induction

Explore how a rotating magnetic field produces torque in a squirrel-cage rotor.

Open simulator
M=+
Electrical machines

Brushed DC

Explore how brushes and a commutator keep the armature torque rotating in one direction.

Open simulator
M3∿
Electrical machines

Brushless DC

Observe how the inverter energizes three-phase stator windings in sequence to rotate a permanent-magnet rotor.

Open simulator
M3∿PM
Electrical machines

Synchronous (PMSM)

See why a synchronous rotor locks exactly to the rotating field — and what happens when the load pulls it out of step.

Open simulator
MSM
Electrical machines

Stepper

Watch the rotor advance one discrete step per pulse — and see what happens when the pulse rate outruns the available torque.

Open simulator
M3∿G
Electrical machines

Servo

See how a closed loop holds the rotor on the commanded speed — and how the following error grows with speed until you raise the loop gain.

Open simulator
DSG
Semiconductors

N-channel MOSFET

See how gate voltage creates a conductive channel and controls drain current between source and drain.

Open simulator
AK
Semiconductors

P–N junction diode

See how the depletion region enables forward current, blocks reverse current and changes during breakdown.

Open simulator
AK
Semiconductors

Zener diode

See how a Zener diode is built to survive reverse breakdown on purpose — once the knee is reached, the voltage across it barely moves even as the current swings.

Open simulator
AK
Semiconductors

LED

Switch between real LED colors and watch why the current, not the voltage, is what you actually control — and why a bare LED on a supply is always one step from burning out.

Open simulator
N₁N₂
Transformers & magnetics

Transformer

Observe how alternating magnetic flux transfers energy from the primary winding to the secondary winding.

Open simulator
R
Passive components

Resistor

Observe how resistance limits current, drops voltage and converts electrical energy into heat.
