Brown, Marty, Practical Switching Power Supply Design, Academic Press, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1990. 240 p.
The literature available today on the subject of switching power supplies tries to convey an understanding through lengthy derivations of applied mathematics. This does not work since only an intuitive sense of the subject matter creates an understanding of the fundamental relationships. This book is written for just this purpose. It contains no mathematical derivations. Instead it contains written explanations in semitechnical terms to give the reader a good intuitive understanding of the operations of a switching regulator. Topics include why use a switching regulator, how a switching regulator works, a walk through a representative switching power supply, switching power supply topologies, semiconductors used in a switching power supply, the magnetic components within a switching power supply, cross-regulation of the outputs, protection, miscellaneous topics, closing the loop--feedback and stability, resonant converters--an introduction, and switching power supply design examples.
