| Publisher Description: DC-DC converters require negative feedback to provide a suitable output voltage or current for the load. Obtaining a stable output voltage or current in the presence of disturbances like input voltage changes and/or output load changes seems impossible without some form of control. This book shows how simple controllers such as Proportional-Integral (PI) can turn into a robust controller by correct selection of its parameters. Kharitonov's theorem is an important tool toward this end. This book consist of two parts. The first part shows how one can obtain the interval plant model of a DC-DC converter. The second part introduces the Kharitonov's theorem. Kharitonov's theorem is an analysis tool rather than a design tool. Some case studies show how it can be used as a design tool. The prerequisite for reading this book is a first course on feedback control theory and power electronics. |
Contributor Bio(s): Hudgins, Jerry: - Professor Hudgins is a native of West Texas. He attended Texas Tech University, in Lubbock, Texas, where he received a Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering in 1985. Dr. Hudgins served as Associate and Interim Department Chair of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of South Carolina prior to joining the University of Nebraska as Chair. He continues to serve as an electrical engineering program evaluator for ABET since 2000. Dr. Hudgins' research involves power electronic device characterization and modeling. This includes devices made from silicon and wide bandgap materials such as silicon carbide and gallium nitride. Dr. Hudgins served as the President of the IEEE Power Electronics Society (PELS) for the years of 1997 and 1998, and as President of the IEEE Industry Applications Society (IAS) in 2003. He has also served in many international technical conference committee roles through the IAS and PELS, including General Conference Chair of the 1999 IEEE Power Electronics Specialists Conference, Technical Program Chair for the 2001 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting, and General Conference Chair of the 2002 IEEE Industry Applications Society Annual Meeting. Dr. Hudgins has published over 60 technical papers and book chapters concerning power semiconductors and engineering education, and has worked with numerous industries including Ford Motor Co., Northrup-Grumann, International Rectifier, Powerex, and Harris Electronics.Asadi, Farzin: - Farzin Asadi received his B.Sc. in Electronics Engineering, his M.Sc. degree in Control Engineering, and his Ph.D. in Mechatronics Engineering.
