Switch Mode Power Conversion Basic Theory and Design

By K. Kit Sum Copyright 1984

    First Published in 2017. Although the concept of switch mode power conversion is not new, the technology to utilize it has only recently become available. This outstanding monograph provides a complete overview of this subject, enabling engineers to design and implement systems to meet specific requirements. Using the simplest possible language for easy understanding, Switch Mode Power Conversion offers such helpful features as a complete listing of calculator programs, over 200 references, and numerous graphical design aids ... presents examples of basic converter de­ signs ... provides guidelines for avoiding input filter interaction with converter input impedance ... allows designers to check their work with performance evaluation methods... simplifies the explanation of magnetic components basics ... and much more! With this timely volume-the first, single-source reference in this field-electrical and electronic engineers; designers and manufacturers of electronic equipment; and aerospace, computer, control and communication engineers will gain a full appreciation of Switch Mode Power Conversion
