Abstract

See full text

Accordingly, an energy dumping system for an electric component system is provided. The energy dumping system includes a power consuming element that consumes excess energy of the electric component system and dissipates the excess energy as heat. A solid state switch selectively permits energy of the electric component system to flow across the power consuming element. A control module is operable to monitor a voltage of the electric component system and apply a pulse width modulated (PWM) signal to the solid state switch to selectively control energy of the electric component system to flow across the power consuming element.
