PREFACE

The book is in four parts.

Part 1 covers semiconductor switching devices, their electrical and thermal characteristics and

properties. Part 2 describes device driving and protection, while Part 3 presents a number of

generic applications. The final part, Part 4, introduces capacitors, magnetic components, and

resistors, and their characteristics relevant to power electronic applications.
