Practical Design of Power Supplies

"Practical Design of Power Supplies" details key techniques and advice for engineers and technicians who want to design and build power supplies that work the first time they are turned on. Ron Lenk presents experience-based information that can save research and design time. Full of notes and real-world examples, this book acts as a practical reference source throughout the design, lab and production phases. The topics included should be useful in everyday circuits and systems work, as they cover such issues as: common terms and instrumentation; how to design successful magnetics; how to compensate the feedback loop to get stable operation; practical EMI; topology selection; and worst case analysis. The book should be particularly useful to designers who need to understand and implement the concepts behind loop compensation and magnetics design.
