Zhiqing Yang is an associate professor and power electronics researcher with a decade of experience designing and controlling converters for grid, drive, and battery-storage applications. He combines hands-on hardware development—FPGA/DSP control implementation, PCB and prototype assembly, HIL and power-HIL testing—with advanced simulation skills in MATLAB/Simulink, PLECS and PSIM to bridge lab prototypes and real-time systems. His work spans DC-DC converters, MMCs, thermal and reliability modeling, and control schemes that extend soft-switching ranges under light load, informed by industry collaborations at Mitsubishi and E.ON. Academically trained at RWTH Aachen and active in research and teaching at Hefei University of Technology, he also contributes to open-source infrastructure by maintaining critical binary build dependencies (e.g., SQLite updates) in the Yggdrasil project. Practical, detail-oriented, and adept at translating control theory into deployable hardware, he focuses on optimization and reliability of power systems.
