Power Electronics course objective is to educate students to design, construct and maintain devices for conversion of power electricity using power electronic switching components and methods of digital control. Besides theoretical background of power semiconductors, modes of all types of converter (AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC and AC/AC), and in particular DC/DC power supply, students acquire necessary practical experience to apply gained knowledge in industry applications.

Students will have the ability to understand the principles and operating principles of electric power conversion with powerful semiconductor components, to design and calculate calculate parameters of basic power electronic converters (AC/DC, DC/DC, DC/AC and AC/AC), as well as to apply commercial devices in the applied and consumer electronics. Besides, students will gain necessary practical experience through practical work in the laboratory.

Subject and importance of power electronics. Introduction to power converters. Components of power electronics. Structure and operating principles. Safety area. Calculation of losses. Rectifiers (AC/DC). Inverters (DC/AC). Frequency converters (AC/AC). DC converters (DC/DC converters). Choppers. DC power supplies – basic requirements, operating principles, types. Linear power supplies. Switching power supplies without galvanic isolation – concept and classification. Voltage buck converter. Voltage boost converter. Voltage buck/boost converter. Ćuk converter. Switching power supplies with galvanic isolation – concept and classification. Single quadrant power supplies – flyback and forward power supply. Two quadrant power supplies – push-pull, semi bridge and bridge power supply. AC voltage power supplies. Methods of modeling of power converters. Application of modern software (PSPICE or MATLAB). Control methods of power converters using microprocessors. Examples of application of power electronics. Commercial devices, market and applications.

The lectures present main theoretical concepts and mathematical models of a power electronic system. Auditory exercises cover component and converter design problems. Practical experience is gained through laboratory exercises. There student work on the assembly of certain circuits, computer simulations of the circuits and on testing of obtained solutions.
