Description and Table of Contents

Description

This textbook offers broad coverage of the subject of power electronics. Each topic is developed in sufficient depth to expose the fundamental principles, concepts, techniques, methods, and circuits necessary to understand power electronic systems. The applications are diverse enough to expose students to numerous types of systems. The authors have paid particular attention to developing examples and exercises that promote innovative ways of thinking about problems, methods of analysis, and the use of approximations.
