Riassunto

An Introduction to ·P·O·W·E·R· Electronics Second Edition B. M. Bird University of Bristol, UK K. G. King Deceased, formerly Westinghouse Brake & Signal Co. Ltd, Chippenham, Wiltshire, UK D. A. G. Pedder ERA Technology Ltd, UK An updated and extended version of a highly successful text, this second edition gives a lucid, broad-based introduction to power electronics. The text covers a wide range of power converter circuits including simple and controlled rectifiers, d.c. switching regulators, single and multiphase inverters and switched-mode power supplies. Concentrating upon the users? needs, the authors detail general application techniques and avoid extensive theoretical analysis. Features include:

• A review of the most commonly used semiconductor devices.
• A discussion of those circuits employed to protect devices against switching transients and external noise.
• Techniques for thermal analysis and information on device cooling.
• End-of-chapter problems and numerous worked examples to assist the reader?s understanding.
• A detailed bibliography for those who wish to conduct further research.

Presented in a logical, easy-to-follow style, this comprehensive text is ideal for students in power electronics and electrical engineering. Practising engineers who require a guide to the successful implementation of circuit design will also find this book appealing.
