An exploration of the state-of- the-art in power conversion techniques and power semiconductor devices.
A textbook for a course on power electronic/static power converters for advanced undergraduates
in electrical and electronic engineering, providing a comprehensive exploration of the state-of-the-art
in power conversion techniques and power semiconductor devices. This revised and updated
edition features a bottom-down approach that covers the characteristics of power semiconductor
devices first, and then examines the fundamentals of conversion techniques.
