This course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in converters having bidirectional power flow is explained.

DC/DC converters are quite popular among electronic enthusiasts and are widely used within the industry. There are three major types of non-isolated DC/DC converters: buck, boost, and buck-boost. In ...

Power supply circuits come in the form of voltage step-up (boost) or the more common step-down (buck) DC/DC converter. Many of today’s applications require multiple voltage rails to drive a variety of ...

A buck-boost converter maintains a regulated VOUT regardless of whether VIN is above, below, or equal to the output voltage. Ideally, the change from buck to boost and vice versa takes place ...
