Course Description
Examines the application of electronics to energy
conversion and control. Topics covered include:
Modelling, analysis, and control techniques; design of
power circuits including inverters, rectifiers, and DC-DC
converters; and characteristics of power semiconductor
devices.
Numerous application examples will be presented such as
motion control systems, power supplies, and radio-
frequency power amplifiers.

Power electronics is the interface between electronics and power.
POWER ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY
As the technology for the power semiconductor devices and integrated
circuit develops, the potential for applications of power electronics become
wider.
The power semiconductor devices or power electronic converter fall
generally into four categories :
AC to DC Converter (Controlled Rectifier)
DC to DC Converter (DC Chopper)
AC to AC Converter (AC voltage regulator)
DC to AC Converter (Inverter)
The design of power electronics converter circuits requires design the
power and control circuits. The voltage and current harmonics that are generated
by the power converters can be reduced or minimized with a proper choice of the
control strategy.
Power Electronics Application
Power Electronics defined as the application of solid-
state (devices) electronics for the control and
conversion of electric power.
Power electronics have already found an important
place in modern technology and are now used in a
great variety of high-power product, including heat
controls, light controls, electric motor control, power
supplies, vehicle propulsion system and high voltage
direct current (HVDC) systems.

Control is invariably required. Power converter along with its controller
including the corresponding measurement and interface circuits, is also
called power electronic system.
