There are several families of DC/DC converters constituting hundreds of different topologies. Sorting through the various properties and characteristics is obviously a daunting task. Culled from the pages of the groundbreaking Advanced DC/DC Converters, this book provides a focused, concise overview of more than 50 topologies of multi-quadrant converters. All aspects of these topologies are illustrated through designs developed by the authors through the years. The book begins with multiple-quadrant converters followed by switched component (SC and SI) converters, multiple-lift push-pull switched-capacitor converters, and finally, multiple-quadrant soft-switching converters.
