Contents: Foreword.
The book is also useful for professionals working in Power electronics, Power conversion, and analog and digital electronics.. students who study Power Electronics as part of their curriculum.
Replete with examples, illustrations and chapter-end exercises, the book is ideal for B.
Tech.
It also elaborates on modern developments in the field of HVDC transmission, and the schemes for control of DC and AC motors with drives.
The book deals at length with several Power semiconductor devices, providing rigorous coverage of phase-controlled rectifiers, inverters, AC switching controllers / AC voltage controllers, dual converters with cycloconverters, choppers, Power supplies with AC Power conditioners and resonant converters.
Power Electronics is an up-to-date and authoritative text that focuses on the fundamental principles and requirements needed for setting up practical Power electronic systems.
