Description
Power Electronics: Theory and Practicals
This book serves as an essential resource for students and professionals in Electrical Engineering. Starting with the basics of semiconductor technology, the book gradually introduces the basics of power electronics covering construction, principle of operations, various characteristics of power transistors and thyristors, SCR turned-on and turned-off methods, and industrial control circuits using power electronics. All are grouped in separate units. The subject matters are presented constructively so that an electrical engineering degree prepares students to work in different sectors at the very forefront of technology. Laboratory experiments on the basics of power electronics as recommended by AICTE are included in the units.
