Solar photovoltaic (PV) systems require installation of some type of power electronics to control the flow of energy within the system. For a discussion surrounding ...

Power factor (pf) is the ratio between real power (P) flowing to the load, and the apparent power (S) in the circuit: pf = P/S. It is a sinusoidal waveform and therefore expressed as a dimensionless ...

This course introduces the basic concepts of switched-mode converter circuits for controlling and converting electrical power with high efficiency. Principles of converter circuit analysis are ...

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.

I am a proud member of a golden generation of the electrical engineering class of 1966 at Belgrade University, former Yugoslavia. More than 1,000 candidates took two grueling entrance exams competing ...
