Where Can I Find Reliable Learning Material for Power Electronics?

Click For Summary

Discussion Overview

The discussion revolves around finding reliable learning materials for power electronics, with participants clarifying the specific areas of interest within the field, such as power semiconductor devices, converters, and inverters.

Discussion Character

  • Exploratory, Technical explanation

Main Points Raised

  • Some participants request suggestions for good learning materials for power electronics.
  • One participant asks for clarification on whether the inquiry pertains to power supplies, motor control, or high voltage applications.
  • Specific book recommendations are provided, including "High-Frequency Switching Supplies" by Chryssis, "DC-DC Switching Regulator Analysis" by Mitchell, and "Switchmode Power Supply Handbook" by Billings.
  • A participant specifies their interest in power semiconductor devices, phase controlled converters, inverters, and DC-DC converters.
  • Another participant mentions that Motorola has useful application notes on power semiconductor applications and suggests checking their website.
  • A later reply notes that while the Motorola site is good, some animations are not functioning properly.

Areas of Agreement / Disagreement

Participants express varying interests within the broader topic of power electronics, and while some specific resources are suggested, there is no consensus on a single source of reliable learning material.

Contextual Notes

The discussion does not resolve the question of which materials are the most reliable, and the effectiveness of the suggested resources may depend on individual learning preferences and specific areas of focus within power electronics.

Depends a bit on what you mean by power electronics. Do you mean power supplies?

"High-Frequency Switching Supplies" by Chryssis
"DC-DC Switching Regulator Analysis" by Mitchell
"Switchmode Power Supply Handbook" by Billings

Or do you mean some motor control type of power electronics, or high voltage high power stuff like AC Mains power distribution and power generation... ?
 
Thank you for replying .By power electronics i mean -'power semiconductor devices,phase controlled converters,inverters,dc-dc converters.

Motorola has some very good application notes on various power semiconductor applications. Check out their website.
 
Thanx.Motorola site is good.Unfortunately the animations are not working .
