Switching Power Converters

Medium and High Power

Beschreibung

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.

It highlights advancements in new semiconductor devices and packaging technologies, design for reliability, or computer utilization in the design, development, and validation of new technical solutions. It also examines 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.

Similar to the previous two editions, the Third Edition of Switching Power Converters remains the go-to-book for understanding all aspects related to the PWM used in the control of power converters. This book is one of the most comprehensive presentations of PWM algorithms, with illustrations of practical results for optimization or implementation on each analog, software, digital hardware, or Gbit flash memory platform.
