Synopsis

An integrated Electric Energy Systems curriculum consists of three segments: Power Electronics, Power Systems and Electric Drives. This textbook follows a top-down systems-level approach to Power Electronics to highlight interrelationships between these sub-fields. This textbook is intended to teach students both the fundamentals and practical design in a single-semester course. A building-block approach to power electronics allows an in-depth discussion of several important topics that are left out in conventional courses, for example, designing feedback control, power-factor-correction circuits, soft-switching, and SV-PWM which is a PWM technique far superior to Sine-PWM, to name a few. The topics in this book are carefully sequenced to maintain continuity and student interest throughout the course. In a fast pace course with proper student background, this book can be covered from front-to-back in one semester. However, the material is arranged in such a way that an instructor, to accommodate the students background, can either omit an entire topic or cover it quickly to provide just an overview using the PowerPoint-based slides on the accompanying CD, without interrupting the flow.
