Book Description. From the Back Cover. A practical guide to state-of-the-art power supply design. Nowhere else can you find, in one book, all the information you need to design a switching power supply. And no other book on the subject is as practical, yet mathematically sufficient, without being unnecessarily academic. Using a tutorial, how-to-do-it approach, Pressman first explains basic principles and why thigs are done as they are. With a knowledge of basic principles, the engineer can easily cope with new design requirements and evaluate alternative design decisions. The topics covered represent all those areas where a design decision has to be made in commencing a new design. These include: Topology Descriptions -- A quantitative description of the roughly 15 commonly used topologies. Maximum current and voltage stress on power transistors for specified input voltage-output powers are described. The discussion permits selection of an optimum topology for the specified input-output voltages, output powers, and the selection of the power transistors; High-Frequency Magnetics Fundamentals--Ferrite core hysteresis, coil skin effect, and proximity effect losses; Transformer Design--Derivation of equation for transformer core selection for available output power as a function of frequency, flux density, iron and bobbin area, and topology; novel charts derived from the equations, permitting core selection at a glance; core, coil, total transformer loss, and temperature rise calculations; transformer design examples in major topologies; DC Current Biased Inductor Design -- Design of inductors carrying DC bias currents using ferrite, MPP, Koolmu, and powered iron cores; Magnetic Amplifier, Snubber Designs, and Resonant Converters; Feedbak Look Stabilization; Critical Polaroid Waveforms in Major Topologies. This second edition adds chapters on the current hottest topics in the field; power factor corrections, high-frequency ballsts for flourescent lamps, and low-input voltage power supplies for laptop computers. |

From the Preface "Power Electronics" is intended as a textbook for a course on "power electronics / static power converters" for junior or senior undergraduate students in electrical and electronic engineering. It could also be used as a textbook for graduate students and could be a reference book for practicing engineers involved in the design and applications of power electronics. The prerequisites would be courses on basic electronics and basic electrical circuits. For an undergraduate course, Chapters 1 to 11 should be adecuate to provide a strong background on power electronics. Chapters 12 to 16 could be left for other courses or included in a graduate course. The fundamentals of power electronics are well stablished and they do not change rapidly. However, the device characteristics are continuously being improved and new devices are added. "Power Electronics" convers device characteristics conversion techniques first, and then applications. It emphasizes the fundamental principles of power conversions. This is divided into five parts:
Topics like three-phase circuits, magnetic circuits, switching functions of converters, dc transient analysis, and Fourier analysis are rewiewed in the Appedixes. Power electronics deals with the applications of solid-state electronics for the control and conversion of electric power. Conversion techniques require the switching on and off of power semiconductor devices. Low-level electronics circuits, which normally consist of integrated circuits and discrete components, generate the requited gating signals for the power devices. Integrated circuits and discrete components are being replaced by microprocessors. An ideal power device should have no switching-on and -off limitations in terms of turn-on time, turn-off time, current, and voltage handling capabilities. Power semiconductor technology is rapidly developing fast switching power devices with increasing voltage and current limits. Power switching devices such as power BJTs, power MOSFETs, SITs, IGBTs, MCTs, SITHs, SCRs, TRIACs, GTOs, and other semiconductor devices are finding increasing applications in a wide range of products. With the availability of faster switching devices, the applications of modern microprocessors in synthesizing the control strategy for gating power devices to meet the conversion specifications are widening the scope of power electronics. The power electronics revolution has gained the momentum, since late 80s and early 90s. Within the next 30 years, power electronics will shape and condition the electricity somewhere between its generation and all its users. The potential applications of power electronics is yet to be fully explored. The potential applications of power electronics is yet to be fully explored but we've made very effort to cover as many applications as possible in this book. Table of Contents.

Book Description from Back Cover In a field where change and growth are inevitable, new electronic packaging problems continually arise. Smaller, more powerful devices are prone to overheating, causing intermittence, corrupted signals, and outright system failure. Since convection cooling is the heat transfer path most engineers take to deal with thermal problems, you need to gain as much understanding of the underlying mechanisms of fluid motion possible. Thermal Dsign of Electronic Equipment is the only book that specifically targets the formulas used by electronic packaging and thermal engineers. Instead of relying on theoretical expressions and text explanations, the author presents empirical formulas and practical techniques that, allow you to quickly solve nearly any thermal engineering problem in electronic packaging.
