Not only do these committees offer ways to give back to the industry, but they also avenues for participation and leadership. Each committee focuses on a key aspect of making the power electronics commercially viable and available in industry.

Each committee shapes content and offers public speaking opportunities at events, and/or webinars. Some committees even create special projects such as research on embedded magnetics or magnetic core loss studies.

Each committee will meet in person at APEC each year so members will have a face to associate with a person. Feel free to try out a committee if you are attending APEC. See here: https://www.psma.com/conferences/APEC for the schedule.
