About the Course

This course can also be taken for academic credit as ECEA 5701, part of CU Boulder’s Master of Science in Electrical Engineering degree. This
course introduces more advanced concepts of switched-mode converter circuits. Realization of the power semiconductors in inverters or in
converters having bidirectional power flow is explained. Power diodes, power MOSFETs, and IGBTs are explained, along with the origins of their
switching times. Equivalent circuit models are refined to include the effects of switching loss. The discontinuous conduction mode is described
and analyzed. A number of well-known converter circuit topologies are explored, including those with transformer isolation. ...

A really good course on converter circuits. The way Dr. Erickson synthesized inverters from buck converters was eye opening. Many lectures overlook such basic aspects of power electronics synthesis.

Great follow on to the Introduction to Power Electronics. Provides a great logical deepening of understanding and practical impacts that can help to understand real-world behaviour and problems.
