Significant advances in the micro-miniaturization of electronic systems have spurred the creation of space-saving switchmode conversion techniques for the design of highly efficient power processing ewuipment. Yet while there are literally hundreds of switchmode power converter (SPCs) circuit variations, the vast majority of today's electronic design engineers have not tapped their vast potential. This is largely because practical, up-to-date information on the design of SPCs has been scattered tyhroughout numerous publications, technical papers, and other scientific reporting media.
