Handbook of switchmode power supplies

Keith H. Billings9780070053304, 0-07-005330-8

The leading hands-on guide in this rapidly expanding area of electronics, Keith Billings revision of the Switchmode Power Supply Handbook brings additional state-of-the-art techniques and developments to engineers at all levels. Offering sound working knowledge of the latest in topologies and clear, step-by-step approaches to component decisions, this handbook gives power supply designers practical, solutions-oriented design guidance, free of unnecessarily complicated mathematical derivations and theory. The Handbook features many new fully worked examples, as well as numerous nomograms–everything you need to design todays smaller, faster, and cooler systems.
Turn to the new Part 4, and youll find cutting-edge design expertise on: electronic ballast power factor correction. In addition, the previously updated parts 1-3 still provide fully applicable sections on: thermal management techniques transformers, chokes, input filters, EMI control, converters, snubber circuits, auxiliary systems, and much more.
