Aim: The course objective is 
 - to provide the student with a basic knowledge of how to design  switch mode converters. 
  - to enable the student to analyse and understand the operation of an  unknown converter topology. 
  - to enable the student to perform a rational choise of converter topology to  any given application. 
 - to provide the student with an overview of applications for power semiconductors and circuits
 - to enable the student to evaluate power electronic circuits and components good and bad characteristics.
