About this book

This book offers an overview of power electronic applications in the study of power integrated circuit (IC) design, collecting novel research ideas and insights into fast transient response to prevent the output voltage from dropping significantly at the undershoot. It also discusses techniques and training to save energy and increase load efficiency, as well as fast transient response and high efficiency, which are the most important factors for consumer products that implement power IC. Lastly, the book focuses on power electronics for system loop analysis and optimal compensation design to help users and engineers implement their applications.

The book is a valuable resource for university researchers, power IC R&D engineers, application engineers and graduate students in power electronics who wish to learn about the power IC design principles, methods, system behavior, and applications in consumer products.

About the authors

Dr. Wen-Wei Chen is currently a postdoctoral researcher at the Future Energy Electronics Center (FEEC), Virginia Tech, USA. Dr. Chen received his BS degree in Electrical Engineering from the National Kaohsiung University of Applied Sciences, Kaohsiung City, Taiwan, in 2005, and his MS degree in Electrical Engineering from the National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Tainan City, Taiwan, in 2007. Dr. Chen has since gathered a decade’s experience as an engineer and manager, specializing in the development of power integrated circuit (IC) components and devices, such as battery switching chargers, central processing unit (CPU) core power ICs, light-emitting diode (LED) drivers, adaptive on-time control for buck converters, and solid-state drive power management ICs, including prominent positions at companies such as Richtek Technology (MediaTek), DialogSemiconductor, and Novatek Microelectronics.

From 2012 to 2014, Dr. Chen completed his PhD degree in Electrical Engineering at the NCKU, Tainan City, Taiwan. His primary research interest is in power integrated circuits with power electronics applications.

 Dr. Chen has published numerous journal and conference papers, and holds 24 patents certified in the United States, Taiwan, China, and Korea. In recognition of his significant contributions, Dr. Chen received the “2014 IEEE Tainan Section Macronix Award” from the IEEE, the “2014 Outstanding Young Engineer Award” from the Chinese Institute of Engineers, and the “2012 Richtek Invention Award” and “2010 Outstanding Achievement Team Award” from Richtek Technology (MediaTek).

 Prof. Jiann-Fuh Chen is currently associate dean of the College of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, National Cheng Kung University (NCKU), Tainan City, Taiwan. Prof. Chen received his BS, MS, and PhD degrees in Electrical Engineering from the NCKU, Tainan City, Taiwan, in 1978, 1980, and 1985, respectively. Since 1980, he has been working at the NCKU’s Department of Electrical Engineering. His chief research interests include power electronics and energy conversion.
