A Course in Power Electronic Design

Are you keeping current with SMPS magnetics? Materials and designs are evolving into smaller, lighter and cheaper devices at higher frequencies. SMPS magnetics are now being designed for much higher power applications, greatly reducing size and improving efficiency over linear designs.

The course emphasizes a practical approach to design and will cover such topics as:

...Trends in core materials
...Choosing the right core for your application
...Controlling winding losses at high frequencies
...Design for cost reduction
...SMPS transformer design
...Buck/boost/PFC inductor design
...Resonant circuit magnetics
...Common mode choke design
...Current sense design using magnetics

Take advantage of this opportunity to learn from Weyman Lundquist. He will bring you up to date on current trends and share his magnetics design secrets with you.
