Description

The subject of power electronics is concerned with solid state devices for the control and conversion of electrical power. These silicon devices are designed mainly for switching the transfer current from one part of an electrical circuit to another. Power electronics has a wide range of applications from the small systems used in electrical appliances to very large systems for the supply and distribution of electricity. Although it can be difficult to completely define where the boundary lies between electronics and power electronics, this resource succeeds at breaking down the discipline. Containing the useful concepts and building blocks that go into making a power converter operate successfully, this book provides a description of the characteristics of different types of power semiconductor devices and their application to power converter circuits. Applications to power transmission, electric drives, and medical equipment are included to illustrate the wide range of power electronics in both small and high power circuits Introduction to Power Electronics Contents Preface 1 Introduction 1.1 Power Semiconductor Devices 1.2 Power Conversion 1.3 Passive Components 1.4 Parameters and Analysis of Waveforms 1.5 Ideal Power Device 1.6 Practical Device 1.7 Sources of Information 2 Diode 2.1 Ideal Characteristic of a Diode 2.2 Simple Diode Model 2.3 Diode Model 2.4 Power Dissipation 2.5 Free-Wheeling Diode (Fly-Wheel) 2.6 Zener Diode 2.7 Schottky Diode 3 Thyristor 3.1 Gate Isolation Circuit 3.2 Snubber 3.3 Natural Commutation 3.4 Single-Phase AC Supply with Single-Gate Pulse Applied to a Thyristor and Resistive Load 3.5 Single-Phase Supply with Single-Gate Pulse Applied to a Thyristor and Inductance Load 3.6 Forced Commutation 3.7 Triac 3.8 Gate Turn-Off Thyristors 4 Transistors 4.1 Safe Operating Area 4.2 Snubber 4.3 Metal Oxide Semiconductor Field Effect Transistor 4.4 Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor 4.5 Guide to Power Level and Frequency 5 Heating and Cooling 5.1 Thermal Resistance 5.2 Equivalent Circuit 5.3 Transient Thermal Resistance 6 Phase-Controlled Thyristor Converters and Diode Rectifiers 6.1 Phase-Controlled AC Thyristor Converter 6.2 Single-Phase Converter 6.3 Three-Phase Converter 6.4 Overlap 6.5 Inversion 6.6 Power Systems 6.7 DC Motor Drive 7 Cycloconverter 7.1 Single-Phase Cycloconverter 7.2 Three-Phase Cycloconverter 8 Inverter 8.1 Single-Phase Inverter 8.2 Three-Phase Inverter 9 DC-to-DC Converters 9.1 Inductive Load 9.2 DC Machine 9.3 Regeneration 9.4 Step-Up and Step-Down DC-to-DC Converters 9.5 Step-Down (Buck) Converter 9.6 Step-Up (Boost) Converter 10 Systems and Methods 10.1 Logic Switching 10.2 Defibrillator and Transcranial Magnetic Stimulator 10.3 Synchronization to an AC Supply 10.4 Measurement of Current and Voltage 10.5 Lowpass Filter 10.6 Circuit Protection 10.7 Fourier Series 10.8 AC Line Transient Suppression 10.9 Efficiency of DC Converters 10.10 Chaotic Behavior in Diode Circuits 11 Examples Example 11.1 Example 11.2 Example 11.3 Example 11.4 Example 11.5 Example 11.6 Example 11.7 Example 11.8 Example 11.9 Example 11.10 Example 11.11 Example 11.12 Example 11.13 Example 11.14 Comment on the Fourier Series Examples List of Symbols About the Author Index
