After completing this course, you will:
- Understand what a switched-mode converter is and its basic operating principles
- Be able to solve for the steady-state voltages and currents of step-down, step-up, inverting, and other power converters
- Know how to derive an averaged equivalent circuit model and solve for the converter efficiency
A basic understanding of electrical circuit analysis is an assumed prerequisite for this course.
