DescriptionThis course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
Power electronics engineers do not just simulate converters. They need to understand why a converter behaves the way it does, how to derive its model, how to design the power stage, how to stabilize the control loop, and how to verify that the result is physically and mathematically consistent.
That is the focus of this course.
You will learn a structured engineering workflow for DC-DC converter design, modeling, control and simulation, with a strong focus on Buck, Boost and Buck-Boost converters.
Rather than treating MATLAB, Simulink, Mathcad, PLECS, PSIM or LTspice as black-box tools, the course develops the engineering model first and then uses simulation to verify it.
You will learn how to
• Analyze switching converters using inductor volt-second balance and capacitor charge balance
• Apply the small-ripple approximation and continuous-conduction-mode analysis
• Derive duty-cycle relationships and converter operating equations
• Size inductors and capacitors and evaluate current, voltage and ripple stresses
• Include losses and non-ideal effects in engineering calculations
• Build averaged converter models
• Apply state-space averaging
• Derive small-signal control-to-output transfer functions
• Interpret poles, zeros, resonance and damping
• Design and evaluate closed-loop control systems
• Apply PID-based regulation
• Understand Type-II and Type-III compensation concepts
• Use K-factor-based compensator design
• Evaluate crossover frequency, phase margin and gain margin
• Work with analog and digital control concepts
• Verify controller performance in both frequency and time domains
A major strength of the course is the multi-tool engineering workflow.
Depending on the lecture and design problem, examples use
• MATLAB
• Simulink
• Mathcad
• PLECS
• PSIM
• LTspice
The objective is not to become dependent on one simulation environment. You will learn how the same converter physics, mathematical models and control concepts can be recognized and verified across different tools.
The course emphasizes engineering interpretation rather than simply obtaining a successful simulation.
You will learn to ask
• Is the assumed operating mode valid?
• Are the voltage and current stresses realistic?
• Is the selected inductance consistent with the desired ripple?
• What determines the output-capacitor requirement?
• What do the poles and zeros tell us about the converter?
• Is the selected crossover frequency reasonable?
• Does the complete loop have adequate stability margins?
• Does the time-domain response agree with the frequency-domain analysis?
The course also connects converter theory with practical applications. An automotive System Basis Chip case study shows how Buck and Boost power stages can fit into a wider ECU power architecture together with regulators, communication interfaces, diagnostics and system-level functions.
This is more than a collection of video lectures.
The engineering learning package includes
• A dedicated DC-DC Converter Engineering Handbook
• Engineering exercises
• Complete worked solutions
• Design and calculation examples
• MATLAB and simulation resources
• Converter models used throughout the course
• A final engineering exam
• Complete final-exam solutions
These resources allow you to revisit derivations, reproduce calculations and test your engineering understanding independently.
The course is designed for electrical and electronics engineering students, recent graduates, power-electronics engineers, control engineers, embedded engineers, automotive engineers and other learners who want to move from basic circuit theory toward practical DC-DC converter design and control.
You do not need to begin as an expert in converter control. A basic understanding of electrical circuits and power electronics is sufficient. Familiarity with transfer functions and feedback control is helpful.
The central engineering workflow is
Understand the switching states.
Derive the steady-state relationships.
Build the averaged model.
Derive the small-signal plant.
Design the controller.
Verify the complete loop.
Then use simulation to confirm the engineering.
The current course focuses on Buck, Boost and Buck-Boost converters, while future updates may extend the same methodology to additional converter topologies, more advanced analog and digital control techniques, and further simulation and engineering-validation workflows.
The goal is simple: derive first, model correctly, design deliberately, and use simulation as verification rather than as a substitute for engineering understanding.
