Learn about rectifiers, DC-to-DC converts, and inverters with our Power Electronics Fundamentals online course. Earn 3 PDHs for professional engineers.
ENROLL NOWThis course is designed to provide a complete overview of one of the main areas of electrical engineering and power engineering: power electronics. The three main types of power electronics devices (i.e., rectifiers, dc-to-dc converters, and inverters) are discussed in detail in the lectures. For each device, the ideal circuit is discussed along with different circuit topologies to provide a wide range of practical uses.
By learning how rectifiers, dc-to-dc converters, and inverters are designed, you will learn the fundamentals for designing your own power electronics devices, such as battery chargers, switched-mode power supplies, solar inverters, and variable frequency drives, among others.
Throughout the course, practical numerical problems are solved to aid your understanding of power electronics. Additionally, the course includes 5 quizzes with a total of 15 questions. Three articles are also provided so you can learn by reading as well as videos.
Remember that we offer a 7-day trial period with our monthly and annual subscriptions. Our instructors are also always available for questions while you go through the course to ensure everything is clear.
