Introduction to Power Electronics
By Denis Fewson
This text book offers modern energy electronics, which is the application of semiconductor devices to control and convert electrical energy. The increased availability of solid state power switches has led to a very rapid expansion of applications, from relatively low power control in local equipment to high power control in industrial processes and high power control along transmission lines.
