Introduction to Power Electronics (Essential Electronics Series) 1st Edition by D. Fewson (Author)
Series: Essential Electronics Series Paperback: 208 pages Publisher: Butterworth-Heinemann; 1 edition (April 10, 1998) Language: English ISBN-10: 0340691433 ISBN-13: 978-0340691434
Building on solid state device and electromagnetic contributions to the series, this text book introduces modern power electronics, that is the application of semiconductor devices to the control and conversion of electrical power. The increased availability of solid state power switches has created a very rapid expansion in applications, from the relatively low power control of domestic equipment, to high power control of industrial processes and very high power control along transmission lines.
This text provides a comprehensive introduction to the entire range of devices and examines their applications, assuming only the minimum mathematical and electronic background. It covers a full year`s course in power electronics. Numerous exercises, worked examples and self assessments are included to facilitate self study and distance learning.
