About the Book

This updated edition of this book provides comprehensive coverageof modern power electronics, addressing all the latest trends andhot-button issues from PWM rectifiers to renewable energysystems to electromagnetic interference. It features an overview ofadvanced control methods used in today s power electronicconverters, numerous SPICE files of typical power conversioncircuits, and an Instructor's Manual with solutions to allproblems. An extensive body of examples, exercises, computerassignments, and simulations make it highly suitable as a textbookfor undergraduate/graduate students of engineering in electricalengineering, industrial engineering or renewable energy, andpracticing engineers.
