An introduction course to switched-mode power converters. The first part of the course treats basic circuit operation, including steady-state converter modeling and analysis, switch realization, discontinuous conduction mode, and transformer-isolated converters. Next, converter dynamics and control are covered, including ac modeling of converters using averaged methods, small-signal transfer functions, and classical feedback loop design. Finally, advanced modeling, analysis and control techniques are covered, including Feedback Theorem; circuit averaging, averaged switch modeling, and simulation; DCM modeling, extra element theorems; and current-programmed control.
