About

M. Sharika is a power electronics researcher whose work focuses on efficient converter topologies for robotic and motor-drive applications. Her most cited paper, “Implementation of a SISO-ZVS push-pull converter fed DC servo motor” (2012, 3 citations), introduces a single-output zero voltage switching (ZVS) push-pull converter designed to minimize switching and conduction losses. Operating at 50 kHz and delivering 5 V/1 A, this converter is tailored to drive DC servo motors in robotic systems, demonstrating a practical approach to improving energy efficiency in low-power actuation. Sharika’s contribution lies in integrating soft-switching techniques with a compact, single-output architecture, addressing key challenges in power supply design for precise motor control. While her citation count is modest, her work represents a focused effort to enhance converter performance in niche robotic applications, offering a foundation for further exploration in ZVS topologies. Her research underscores the importance of loss reduction and reliability in power electronics for automation, making her a contributor to the ongoing development of efficient drive systems.
