    The goal To introduce students to analysis of basic topologies of dc/dc switch-mode converters and dc/ac switch-mode inverters. To perform a comparative analysis of these topologies from the standpoint of mains and load power quality. To introduce students to basic principles and techniques of pulse width modulation, harmonic distortion analysis and output voltage filtration.
    The outcome Students should understand principles of operation of dc/dc switch-mode converters and single- and three-phase switch-mode inverters. Based on the obtained knowledge and for given operating conditions, students should be able to choose the appropriate topology of a dc/dc switch-mode converter and a dc/ac switch-mode inverter.
