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.

[Ammon] repairs busted LCD monitors as a side hobby, so replacing burned out CCFLs and inverter circuits is something he can do in his sleep. One Dell monitor he received had him so perplexed ...

Pure sine inverters use additional (and expensive) circuitry to better replicate what you get from the wall plug at home. The power they produce is smoother and less distorted, which can reduce ...
