OBJECTIVES:
DC Power supplies and Classification; Switched mode dc power supplies - with and without
isolation, single and multiple outputs; Closed loop control and regulation; Design examples on
converter and closed loop performance.
Switched mode AC-DC converters. Synchronous rectification - single and three phase topologies
- switching techniques - high input power factor . Reduced input current harmonic distortion.
improved efficiency. with and without input-output isolation. Performance indices design
examples
Matrix converters. Basic topology of matrix converter; Commutation – current path; Modulation
techniques - scalar modulation, indirect modulation; Matrix converter as only AC-DC converter;
AC-AC converter with DC link - topologies and operation - with and without resonance link -
converter with dc link converter; Performance comparison with matrix converter with DC link
converters.
Soft switching techniques. ZVS, ZCS, quasi resonance operation; Performance comparison hard
switched and soft switched converters.AC-DC converter, DC-DC converter, DC-AC converter.;
