Switching Power Converters : Medium and High Power

Omtale

The Third Edition of Switching Power Converters goes beyond the design and analysis of conventional power converter circuits to discuss the actual use of industrial technology, covering facets of implementation otherwise overlooked by theoretical textbooks. This edition uniquely presents the historical and market evolution of each technology, allowing the Reader to follow trends. Power electronics represents a mature technology, with a variety of products concurrent on the market, designed and launched from the 1990s to 2020s. The theoretical aspects presented in the book are supported with many examples, diligently exemplifying this market complexity. Highlights advancements in new semiconductor devices and packaging technologies, design for reliability, or computer utilization in design, development and validation of new technical solutionsExamines all of the multidisciplinary aspects of medium- and high-power converter systems, including basic power electronics, digital control and hardware, sensors, analog preprocessing of signals, protection devices and fault management, and pulse-width-modulation (PWM) algorithms.Provides a comprehensive presentation of PWM algorithms, with illustration of practical results for optimization or implementation on each of analog, software, digital hardware, or Gbit flash memory platforms.Similar to the previous two editions, Third Edition of Switching Power Converters remains the go-to-book for understanding all aspects related to the Pulse Width Modulation used in control of power converters.
