Summary:This paper introduces a new software tool "iPES - Interactive Power Electronics Seminar" for teaching and self-studying power electronics. iPES consists of HTML text where Java-applets (small programs) are inserted which are used for interactive animation and simulation of power electronic circuits and electrical machines. The whole tool does need just a standard web-browser and is fully independent of the underlying operating system. No software installation is required, and all interactive Java programs are written with the focus on very easy usage. The tool is available at www.ipes.ethz.ch in English, German and Japanese, can be accessed via the World Wide Web or used with a CD-ROM in a stand-alone PC.
