Lightweight, small-size, and high-power-density power converter systems, which use only switches and capacitors in their power stage, have no need for transformers or inductors in their design. This ...
This course covers the analysis and design of magnetic components, including inductors and transformers, used in power electronic converters. This course assumes prior completion of ECEA 5700: ...
This course teaches how to design a feedback system to control a switching converter. The equivalent circuit models derived in the previous courses are extended to model small-signal ac variations.
Analog Devices has managed to create a 500W switched-capacitor power chip for fixed ratio power conversion at up to 72V and 99% efficiency. Power density up to 4,000W/in 3 is claimed. The main ...
