Power Electronics: Circuits, Devices and Applications

With a holistic coverage of circuits, applications, and devices, power electronics is a useful textbook for students pursuing electronics and related specialisations. The book is a comprehensive compilation of varied knowledge on semi-conductors. From their designs to characteristics to its applications, the book is an apt source of information and facts for students.dc and ac drives, static switches, flexible ac transmissions (facts), and power supplies are the main applications it discusses in detail. The theoretical concepts are explained clearly with supporting diagrams, pictures, tables, and graphs.it has unsolved numericals for practice and solved numericals to provide better understanding. It covers the latest industry-standard software tools, mathcad and spice. It includes questions and problems at the end of every chapter. The book explains analysis using computer softwares and computer-aided design techniques. Power electronics includes chapters such as magnetic circuits, fourier analysis, transient analysis, three-phase circuits, and switching functions of converters.the book has 18 chapters like power semiconductor diodes and circuits, multilevel inverters, protection of devices and circuits, gate drive circuits, thyristors, pulse-width modulated inverters, controlled rectifiers, resonant pulse inverters, and more.power electronics was published by pearson in 2008. It is available in paperback format. Key features: power electronics has been translated into many languages like italian, chinese, spanish, indonesian, portuguese, korean, persian, and more.
