Course Objectives Electrical power is widely used in every part of home and industry from milliwatts to megawatts. The main objective of power electronics is to improve the quality and utilization of electrical power. Efficient use of power will, therefore, conserve the energy resources of the world. Power electronics addresses the conversion techniques of electrical energy to achieve these goals.
Course Description Switching circuits and basic concepts of power electronics. Diode, SCR, Triacs, GTO, BJT, MOSFET, IGBT, MCT's operational characteristics. Controlled and uncontrolled one and three phase rectifiers. DC choppers. Inverters, one and three phase inverters, pulse width modulation and voltage regulation. AC choppers. Cycloconverters. Protection and snubber circuits. Parallel and series operation operation of switches.
Course Outcomes Students will have a basic knowledge of operation principles of major power electronics circuit types such as rectifiers, inverters, DC and AC choppers.
Pre-requisite(s) There is no pre-requisite(s) for this course, however, your success in this course heavily depends on the good knowledge of the following topics:

1. Steady-state and transient analysis of linear electric circuits containing resistors, inductors, and capacitors.
2. The behavior of RLC circuits involving switches.
3. Solution of differential equations with initial conditions.
4. Phasor analysis of AC circuits, computing RMS and average values, power factor, meaning of leading and lagging power factors.
5. Apparent, real, and reactive powers in single- and three-phase power system.
6. Algebra with complex numbers, transformation from rectangular to polar coordinate and vice-versa.

The above subjects will not be covered/explained in the class - this course assumes you have sufficient knowledge of these topics. If you feel that your background on the above material is insufficient, you are advised to take a look at your circuit's and mathematic's notes and/or books.
