Course Description
Fundamentals of power electronics drivers, components and controller are included and reviewed. Design considerations of power electronic rectification, controlled rectification, DC chopper power modulators, and DC-to-AC inverters are discussed. Fourier series analysis of inverter waveforms, power filter design and feedback control of a power electronics system are examined. Design and implementation of a power electronics system is performed.
