Overview
This Modeling and Control of Power Electronics Specialization offered by Coursera in partnership with University of Colorado Boulder is intended for students and engineers seeking to advance skills in the analysis, modeling, and design of high-performance control loops around switched-mode dc-dc, ac-dc and dc-ac power converters.
Through five courses, you will cover averaged-switch modeling and simulation techniques, techniques of design-oriented analysis, input filter design, peak and average current-mode control techniques, as well as modeling and control of single-phase power factor correction rectifiers, and inverters for photovoltaic power systems.
What you'll learn
- Master techniques of design-oriented analysis for switched-mode power converters.
- Verify the design of closed-loop regulated power converters using switching and averaged circuit simulations.
- Design high-performance peak current-mode control and average current-mode control loops.
- Design input filters for switched-mode power converters.
- Design power-factor correction rectifiers
- Design dc-ac inverters for solar photovoltaic power systems
