Introduction
Outline What is power electronics? The history Applications About this course
I. What is power electronics?
1) Definition
Power Electronics: is the electronics applied to conversion and control
of electric power.
Range of power scale :
milliwatts(mW) megawatts(MW) gigawatts(GW)
A more exact explanation:
The primary task of power electronics is to process and control the
flow of electric energy by supplying voltages and currents in a form
that is optimally suited for user loads.
Conversion of electric power
Other names for electric
power converter:
-Power converter
-Converter
-Switching converter
-Power electronic circuit
-Power electronic converter

Power electronic system
Generic structure of a power electronic system
Control is invariably required.Power converter along with its controller
including the corresponding measurement and interface circuits, is
also called power electronic system.

A typical power electronic system
The task of power electronics has been recently extended to also ensuring the currents and power consumed by power converters and loads to
meet the requirement of electric energy sources.

4) Position and significance in the human society
Electric power is used in almost every part and everywhere of modern
human society.
Electric power is the major form of energy source used in modern
human society.
The objective of power electronics is right on how to use electric power,
and how to use it effectively and efficiently, and how to improve the
quality and utilization of electric power.
Power electronics and information electronics make two poles of
modern technology and human society: information electronics is the
brain, and power electronics is the muscle.

Trends It is estimated that in developed countries now 60% of the electric
energy goes through some kind of power electronics converters before it is finally used.
Power electronics has been making major contributions to: --better performance of power supplies and better control of electric
equipment --energy saving --environment protection reduction of energy consumption leads to less pollution reduction of pollution produced by power converters direct applications to environment protection technology
