Abstract |
We show a family of simple converters for use in the classroom. Showing the basic topologies (buck,boost,buck-boost, flyback) the student can be introduced to the functionality and
problems of power conversion. The circuits are cheap and inherently save. They can be used
in a first introductory electronics course. By building the circuits and making measurements
and simulations the students gain insight into many specific topics of electronics engineering
like: measurement, devices, topologies, magnetics, control. |
