Among regulators, the simplest regulator circuit is for a low-dropout (LDO) voltage regulator whose topology is shown in Fig. 1. As a linear voltage regulator, its ...

This course introduces the basic concepts of switched-mode converter circuits for controlling and converting electrical power with high efficiency. Principles of converter circuit analysis are ...

This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

All electronic systems work within upper and lower temperature limits, outside of which they may not function as well or even malfunction. This article focuses on how high temperatures affect ...

I am a proud member of a golden generation of the electrical engineering class of 1966 at Belgrade University, former Yugoslavia. More than 1,000 candidates took two grueling entrance exams competing ...

I recently came across a really well thought out and technically valid paper that constructed a possible future road for power electronics. This paper 1 was solidly based on sound engineering ...
