Entre os dias 19 e 22 de novembro de 2017, ocorreu em Juiz de Fora a 14ª edição do Congresso Brasileiro de Eletrônica de Potência, que é considerado o maior evento na área de eletrônica de potência da América Latina. O NIMO (Núcleo de Iluminação Moderna) teve grande participação no evento na organização, apresentação de diversos artigos e tutoriais. Foi apresentado o tutorial “Metodologia de avaliação de controladores (drivers) de LEDs para iluminação viária à luz de normativas brasileiras”, além dos seguintes artigos:
- “Implementation of a High Frequency PWM Signal in FPGA for GaN Power Devices Switching”
- “Application of a Flyback Converter and Variable Pulse Modulation for Visible Light Communication”
- “A Review on Gallium Nitride Switching Power Devices and Applications”
- “Development of a Small-Signal Model for a Two-Phase Three-Wire Active Power Filter”
- “Comparative Analysis of Basic Single-Stage Non-Isolated AC-DC Topologies Employed as High-Current COB LED Drivers”
- “DC capacitor energization and voltage regulation of a single-phase hybrid active filter”
- “Current Multilevel PFC Buck Rectifier Applied to a High-Power COB LED Driver”
- “Analysis of a High Power COB LED Light Source Driven by Offline Double-Stage PFC Converter”
- “Design of a High-Power Factor Offline LED Driver Employing a Cuk-Based Low Frequency Pre-Regulator”
