EE 113/213A: Power Electronics
Description: This course covers how electric power is converted between different forms. By the end of the course, students will understand the operation of solar inverters (dc-dc and dc-ac), laptop or electric vehicle chargers (ac-dc), and modern drive systems for an electric car (dc-dc, dc-ac). Moreover, students will learn how to design a transformer and inductor from first principles and will know how to analyze a number of power converter topologies. Finally, practical considerations are explored, such as choice of semiconductor technology (Si, SiC, GaN, etc.), gate driving, and parasitic inductance in circuits.

EE 290-9: Advanced Topics in Power Electronics
Description: This course covers advanced topics and design techniques in power electronics, including small signal modeling, state-space analysis, current-mode control, inductor/transformer design, switched-capacitor power converters, multi-level converters, hybrid switched-capacitor converter, high frequency design considerations, and power management integrated circuits. Numerous application examples and practical power electronics concerns will be examined, such CMOS power management, advanced ac/dc and dc/ac converters, EMI/EMC, and low-voltage power delivery challenges.
