This book on power electronics spans a wide knowledge base such as power devices, drives, circuit topologies, magnetics, system modeling, control configurations, digital processing, thermal and reliability aspects. The book has been broadly divided into two types of topics viz. (a) circuit-oriented aspects and (b) system-oriented aspects. The first seven chapters deal with circuit-oriented aspects of power electronics systems and the remaining chapters deal with system-oriented aspects like controls and reliability. Table of contents power semiconductor switches drive circuits rectifiers dc-dc linear regulators dc-dc switched-mode converters dc-ac switched-mode converters design of magnetics modeling of systems control system essentials optimal and robust controller design discrete computation essentials thermal aspects reliability modeling reliability prediction.
The subject of power electronics has been treated in numerous literatures with various viewpoints and styles. At the outset, it may appear as though one more book is being introduced into the market, which may at most be a marginal update on the existing literature with the same topics that are addressed in other books. Likewise, I would like to reiterate that the topics and concepts covered in this book are not new as one would expect, considering the fi eld of power electronics is rather mature. Notwithstanding the maturity of the fi eld, I must add that the topics in this book are neither old wine in new bottle nor a marginal update. Power electronics that initially started its career in processing power revolved primarily around devices like the vacuum tubes, mercury arc rectifi ers and, later on, the thyristors. Power electronics has come a long way since then. Technology has improved by leaps and bounds making the power devices more closely to an ideal switch, and the control of the switches are performed in the discrete domain with complex control structures. Th us, power electronics now spans a very wide knowledge base such as power devices, drives, circuit topologies, magnetics, system modeling, control confi gurations, digital processing, thermal and reliability aspects. If all these aspects are to be treated in a single book, then the topics will, in general, have a superfi cial bearing. If the topics are to be treated in depth, then it becomes diffi cult to accommodate all these topics into a single book. Here in lies the challenge and hence this book.
