Aim:
The aim of the course is to give the student knowledge of principles for power electronics such as voltage conversion and power control. After completed course shall the student know how to
  • describe the function of common semiconductors used in power control
  • know about drive and protection circuits for power control
  • describe and model thermal effects
  • describe various pulse width modulation principles
  • explain and analyse the function and operating modes of DC-DC converters
  • calculate the waveforms in DC-DC, AC-DC. and DC-AC converters
  • describe the control of DC-DC converters


Prerequisites: (valid for students admitted to programmes within which the course is offered)
Circuit Theory

Note: Admission requirements for non-programme students usually also include admission requirements for the programme and threshhold requirements for progression within the programme, or corresponding.
