Product Description:
The World's #1 Guide to Power Supply Design Now Updated!
Recognized worldwide as the definitive guide to power supply design for over 25 years, Switching Power Supply Design has been updated to cover the latest innovations in technology, materials, and components. This Third Edition presents the basic principles of the most commonly used topologies, providing you with the essential information required to design cutting-edge power supplies. Using a tutorial, how-and-why approach, this expert resource is filled with design examples, equations, and charts. The Third Edition of Switching Power Supply Design features:
* Designs for many of the most useful switching power supply topologies
* The core principles required to solve day-to-day design problems
* A strong focus on the essential basics of transformer and magnetics design
* New to this edition: a full chapter on choke design and optimum drive conditions for modern fast IGBTs

Summary: Very good reference about power supply design
Rating: 4
Regarding the content, I'm still reading the book but it is very interesting, I bought this book because it is a very good reference as far as the power supply design is concerned

Quick delivery. Quality product. Very informative. Very wide scope of design information, Very happy with purchase.
Summary: Great overview of power supply design and topology selection
Rating: 5
I recently graduated from Virginia Tech (undergrad), and I had only two classes that focused on power supply design/analysis. As an extension to what I learned in those classes (basics about buck/boost/flyback design and fabrication), this book is fantastic.
The book assumes you have a basic knowledge of EE principles, but nearly everything is explained in great detail. Topologies are examined one by one, and the author includes ALL of the derivations that lead to his design equations, which leaves very little room for misunderstanding. Each section contains pros/cons to using that particular topology, how to remedy common problems, and even talks a little about component selection (although since this book is years old, there are probably better components out there).
I haven't spent much time looking at the magnetics design section; however, it seems as though it would be useful. The chapter on loop compensation is excellent as well, offering a complete refresher of control theory and the design/analysis/use of Type 2 and 3 controllers. As I said before, the author assumes you're starting with very minimal knowledge of power supplies, so every equation and assumption is clearly justified in writing.
All in all, I would definitely recommend this text to anyone who is interested in power supply design or has to gain a quick understanding of something in the workplace since it not only includes the "quick and easy" design equations but also how to get there if you really care to know.
Summary: Deep and thorough
Rating: 4
A very good book that covers most of the power converter architectures. An excellent addition to your personal library.
Summary: Not what I expected
Rating: 3
Although a good primer on the basic switching topologies, with an excellent chapter on inductor and transformer design, I couldn't help but feel that this book is more than a little outdated (which it is, at nine years old). There was no mention of synchronous or polyphase switchers, inductorless converters, charge pumps, high-frequency designs...and the section on MOSFETs left out what I feel was a great deal of information about paralleling and load sharing. Many of Linear Technology's app notes go above and beyond the material presented in this book...and they're free.
