"Abc of Power Modules – Functionality, Structure and Handling of a Power Module" is the first practical manual specifically about using components to control DC voltage. The manual explains the basics of voltage control and frequently used switching topologies. The mechanical design of a power module is described as well as its impact on EMC and heat management. "ABC of Power Modules" offers numerous practical tips on questions about layout, control, switching and it describes storage and handling as well as the manufacturing and soldering processes. Another chapter is dedicated to measuring procedures needed to obtain meaningful results for assessing power modules. The book concludes with instructions for selecting a module based on important parameters and criteria.
