Electric Vehicle Electronics Workstation by LJ Create

Before students can work confidently with EV panel trainers and complete vehicle systems, they need a foundation in the specific electrical and electronics principles that govern EV system operation. DC and AC circuit behavior, pulse width modulation, electromagnetic devices, three-phase signal structure, input transducers, and the bridge rectifier and transistor circuits that underpin inverter operation are all topics that require hands-on practice at the component level, not just system-level observation. Without that foundation, system-level investigation becomes a matter of following procedures rather than genuinely understanding what is happening.

The LJ Create Electric Vehicle Electronics Workstation provides that foundational training. It allows students to build and investigate a wide range of introductory and advanced EV electronic circuits using on-board and carrier-mounted components, with a series of experiment cards that progressively extend the range of circuit investigation from basics through the electronics directly relevant to EV system operation.

Klein Educational supplies LJ Create automotive training systems to automotive technology programs, community colleges, CTE programs, and workforce development centers across California, Oregon, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, Hawaii, and Alaska.

What is the Electric Vehicle Electronics Workstation?

The Electric Vehicle Electronics Workstation is a desktop training system that provides both introductory EV electronics circuit building using on-board and carrier-mounted components and advanced EV circuit investigation using a range of plug-in experiment cards. The workstation is designed as the EV electrical and electronics fundamentals level of LJ Create's three-level EV training system, providing the component-level skill foundation that students need before they advance to sub-system panel trainers and complete vehicle system trainers.

The experiment card system allows a range of more advanced EV electronic circuits to be investigated by connecting different cards to the base workstation, extending the learning scope progressively through electromagnetic devices, input transducers, bridge rectifiers and transistors, simple amplifiers, and pulse width modulation signal generation and analysis. These topics are directly relevant to the inverter and motor control electronics that students will encounter in EV system diagnosis and service throughout their careers.

What students learn

The workstation supports instruction in basic DC and AC circuit construction and measurement, circuit protection devices and their applications, conductors, insulators, and earth return circuits, voltage, current, resistance, and power calculations, DC and AC signal characteristics and measurement, relay operation and circuit control, passive and active electronic components, electromagnetic devices and their automotive applications, input transducer operation and signal characteristics, bridge rectifier and transistor circuits as used in EV inverters, simple amplifier circuits, three-phase signal structure and characteristics, and pulse width modulation signal generation and analysis as used in motor speed control and other EV system applications.
