Switched Inductor Power IC Design

This textbook uses design insight, real-life examples, illustrative figures, easy-to-follow equations, and simple SPICE code to explain how semiconductor devices (diodes, BJTs, and MOSFETs) work independently and collectively in switched-inductor power supplies, how they transfer power, consume power, and react and respond across frequency, how feedback loops switch, control, and stabilize them, and how the building blocks that comprise them are implemented and designed. It is focused and complete, with a holistic approach and perspective on power IC design that extends from semiconductor devices to fully-closed feedback systems. Readers will develop the insight needed to interpret, assess, and design switched-inductor power ICs, which almost all electronic systems need, yet no other book addresses this way.

This comprehensive textbook employs design insight, real-life examples, illustrative figures, easy-to-follow equations, and simple SPICE code to elucidate the functioning of semiconductor devices, including diodes, bipolar-junction transistors (BJTs), and metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) field-effect transistors (FETs), individually and collectively in switched-inductor power supplies. It delves into the mechanisms of power transfer, consumption, and reaction and response across frequency, highlighting the role of feedback loops in switching, controlling, and stabilizing these power supplies. Furthermore, it explores the implementation and design of the building blocks that comprise these power ICs.

The book adopts a focused and comprehensive approach, providing a holistic perspective on power IC design that encompasses semiconductor devices and fully-closed feedback systems. Its primary objective is to equip readers with the necessary insight to interpret, assess, and design switched inductor power ICs, which are essential components in almost all electronic systems. Unlike any other book in the field, this textbook uniquely addresses the design of these power ICs in a comprehensive manner.

By presenting a rich blend of theoretical concepts and practical applications, the textbook equips readers with the skills and knowledge required to excel in the field of power IC design. It offers a comprehensive treatment of topics such as power supply topologies, switching regulators, inductor design, and noise reduction techniques. The use of real-life examples and illustrative figures further enhances the understanding and retention of the material, making it accessible to students and professionals alike.

In addition, the textbook includes comprehensive SPICE code examples and exercises, allowing readers to apply the theoretical concepts learned in a hands-on manner. This practical approach not only reinforces the understanding of the subject but also develops problem-solving skills and enhances the ability to design efficient and reliable power ICs.

With its holistic approach, comprehensive coverage, and practical applications, this textbook is an invaluable resource for students, researchers, and professionals in the field of power IC design. It serves as a comprehensive guide that empowers readers to develop the expertise needed to design innovative and efficient power solutions for a wide range of electronic applications.
