And a large part of that detail lies in the practical domain, largely because of the typically small number of microseconds of switching periods involved, and the even smaller tens of nanoseconds of switch transition times --- all these, in effect accentuating various ""second-order"" effects, that eventually end up playing prime havoc with ""normal"" expectations of how the circuit should behave. So not unsurprisingly, even after reading several books, most readers still find themselves no closer to the ultimate goal of designing an actual power supplyElectric current convertersSemiconductor switchesSwitching power suppliesElectric current converters.Semiconductor switches.Switching power supplies.621.31/7Maniktala Sanjaya601252MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819500903321Troubleshooting switching power converters1079725UNINA
