DC/AC inversion technology is of vital importance for industrial applications, including electrical vehicles and renewable energy systems, which require a large number of inverters. In recent years, ...inversion technology has developed rapidly, with new topologies improving the power factor and increasing power efficiency. Proposing many novel approaches, this book describes advanced DC/AC inverters that can be used for renewable energy systems. The book introduces more than 100 topologies of advanced inverters originally developed by the authors, including more than 50 new circuits. It also discusses recently published cutting-edge topologies. A key topic for multilevel inverters is the need to manage the switching angles to obtain the lowest total harmonic distortion (THD). The authors outline four methods for finding the best switching angles and use simulation waveforms to verify the design. The optimum switching angles for multilevel DC/AC inverters are also listed in tables for quick reference. Highlighting the importance of inverters in improving energy saving and power-supply quality, the final chapter of the book supplies design examples for applications in wind turbine and solar panel energy systems. Written by pioneers in advanced conversion and inversion technology, this book guides readers in designing more effective DC/AC inverters for use in renewable energy systems.
This book provides a unique masterclass in practical electronic design that draws on the author’s considerable experience as a consultant and design engineer.

The combination of design alchemy and awareness of commercial and manufacturing factors makes this an essential companion for the professional electronics designer, as well as electronic engineering students and professionals looking for a book with a real-world design outlook. Topics covered include analog and digital circuits, component types, power supplies and printed circuit board design. The Second Edition includes new material on microcontrollers, surface mount processes, power semiconductors and interfaces, bringing this classic work up to date for a new generation of designers.
A circuit simulator is a computer program that permits us to see circuit behavior, i.e. circuit voltages and currents, without making the circuit. Use of a circuit simulator is a cheap, efficient, ...and safe way to study the behavior of circuits.
The Toolkit for Interactive Network Analysis (TINA®) is a powerful yet affordable SPICE based circuit simulation and PCB design software package for analyzing, designing, and real time testing of analog, digital, VHDL, MCU, and mixed electronic circuits and their PCB layouts. This software was created by DesignSoft. TINA-TI is a spinoff software program that was designed by Texas Instruments (TI®) in cooperation with DesignSoft which incorporates a library of pre-made TI components for the user to utilize in their designs.
This book shows how a circuit can be analyzed in the TINA-TI® environment. Students of engineering (for instance, electrical, biomedical, mechatronics, and robotics to name a few), engineers who work in the industry, and anyone who wants to learn the art of circuit simulation with TINA-TI can benefit from this book.
