This lecture introduces linear regulators, which are a simple, inexpensive way to regulate an output voltage.

This lecture introduces switching converters, which uses a switching element to transform the incoming power supply into a pulsed voltage.

The lecture will discuss why modeling switch-mode power converters for the purpose of designing controllers is so difficult.

This lecture will discuss the first step in developing an LTI model for a power converter, and the first step is known as averaging.

This lecture will discuss linearizing the average model.

This lab will discuss how to measure the loop gain of a power converter and see if it changes with different operating conditions.

This lecture will discuss parasitic capacitance, the problems it can cause and how to mitigate it.

This lecture will discuss parasitic inductance that comes from the layout of power converters and what it does to the power converter system.

This lecture will discuss prioritizing different aspects of layout to achieve a good result in a reasonable amount of time.

This lecture will discuss laying out gating loops to minimize inductance and get high performance.

This lecture will discuss how to design switching loop.

This lecture will discuss doing good voltage probing when talking about high-frequency signals.

This lab will discuss the impact of low parasitic and high parasitic voltage measurements and how to make good test points.

This lab will demonstrate the parasitic coupling between different loops in a power converter can affect its operation or the measurements that you take.

This lecture will discuss core saturation, which is one of the main limitations in designing a magnetic component.

This lecture will discuss core loss or real energy losses that occur within a magnetic core.

This lecture will discuss if the permeability of a core material really matters.
