From the perspective of design and sizing, this book presents the different functions encountered in a modular way for power electronics.Power Converters and Their Control details less traditional topics such as matrix converters and multilevel converters. This book also features a case study design of an industrial controller, which is a synthesis (except the AC / AC direct conversion) of the study subjects, including sizing associated passive components.
- Introducing essential notions in power electronics from both theoretical and technological perspectives
- Detailed chapters focusing on power supplies for electrical machinery, including a case study of full dimensioning of an industrial variable-speed drive
- Presented from a user's perspective to enable you to apply the theory of power electronics to practical applications
Practicing electronics and power electronics engineers; undergraduates or academics in the field of electronic engineering
