Design, analysis, and practical implementation of advanced controllers for high-frequency switch-mode power supplies (SMPS) are covered. The topics include: continuous and discrete time modeling of switching converters; current-program mode control, power factor correction rectifiers; practical implementation of analog and digital controllers.
The course also has a laboratory portion, where a high-frequency switching converter and its controller are designed and fabricated.
Students who have previously taken ECE533H1 must first check with the instructor before taking this course.
