A circuit simulator is a computer program that permits us to see
circuit behavior, i.e. circuit voltages and currents, without
making the circuit. Use of a circuit simulator is a cheap,
efficient, and safe way to study the behavior of circuits. The
Toolkit for Interactive Network Analysis (TINA (R)) is a powerful
yet affordable SPICE based circuit simulation and PCB design
software package for analyzing, designing, and real time testing of
analog, digital, VHDL, MCU, and mixed electronic circuits and their
PCB layouts. This software was created by DesignSoft. TINA-TI is a
spinoff software program that was designed by Texas Instruments (TI
(R)) in cooperation with DesignSoft which incorporates a library of
pre-made TI components to for the user to utilize in their designs.
This book shows how a circuit can be analyzed in the TINA-TI (R)
environment. Students of engineering (for instance, electrical,
biomedical, mechatronics and robotics to name a few), engineers who
work in industry and anyone who want to learn the art of circuit
simulation with TINA-TI can benefit from this book.
Power electronics systems are nonlinear variable structure systems.
They involve passive components such as resistors, capacitors, and
inductors, semiconductor switches such as thyristors and MOSFETs,
and circuits for control. The analysis and design of such systems
presents significant challenges. Fortunately, increased
availability of powerful computer and simulation programs makes the
analysis/design process much easier. PSIM (R) is an electronic
circuit simulation software package, designed specifically for use
in power electronics and motor drive simulations but can be used to
simulate any electronic circuit. With fast simulation speed and
user friendly interface, PSIM provides a powerful simulation
environment to meed the user simulation and development needs. This
book shows how to simulate the power electronics circuits in PSIM
environment. The prerequisite for this book is a first course on
power electronics. This book is composed of eight chapters: Chapter
1 is an introduction to PSIM. Chapter 2 shows the fundamentals of
circuit simulation with PSIM. Chapter 3 introduces the Simview
(TM). Simview is PSIM's waveform display and post-processing
program. Chapter 4 introduces the most commonly used components of
PSIM. Chapter 5 shows how PSIM can be used for analysis of power
electronics circuits. 45 examples are studied in this chapter.
Chapter 6 shows how you can simulate motors and mechanical loads in
PSIM. Chapter 7 introduces the SimCoupler (TM). Simcoupler fuses
PSIM with Simulink (R) by providing an interface for co-simulation.
Chapter 8 introduces the SmartCtrl (R). SmartCtrl is a controller
design software specifically geared towards power electronics
applications.

Computers play an important role in the analyzing and designing of
modern DC-DC power converters. This book shows how the widely used
analysis techniques of averaging and linearization can be applied
to DC-DC converters with the aid of computers. Obtained dynamical
equations may then be used for control design. The book is composed
of two chapters. Chapter 1 focuses on the extraction of
control-to-output transfer function. A second-order converter (a
buck converter) and a fourth-order converter (a Zeta converter) are
studied as illustrative examples in this chapter. Both ready-to-use
software packages, such as PLECS (R) and MATLAB (R) programming,
are used throught this chapter. The input/output characteristics of
DC-DC converters are the object of considerations in Chapter 2.
Calculation of input/output impedance is done with the aid of
MATLAB (R) programming in this chapter. The buck, buck-boost, and
boost converter are the most popular types of DC-DC converters and
used as illustrative examples in this chapter. This book can be a
good reference for researchers involved in DC-DC converters
dynamics and control.
DC-DC converters require negative feedback to provide a suitable
output voltage or current for the load. Obtaining a stable output
voltage or current in the presence of disturbances like input
voltage changes and/or output load changes seems impossible without
some form of control. This book shows how simple controllers such
as Proportional-Integral (PI) can turn into a robust controller by
correct selection of its parameters. Kharitonov's theorem is an
important tool toward this end. This book consist of two parts. The
first part shows how one can obtain the interval plant model of a
DC-DC converter. The second part introduces the Kharitonov's
theorem. Kharitonov's theorem is an analysis tool rather than a
design tool. Some case studies show how it can be used as a design
tool. The prerequisite for reading this book is a first course on
feedback control theory and power electronics.
Learn to use the Arduino boards to do big jobs in a simple way.
This book is full of real-world examples for Arduino enthusiasts of
all experience levels. All of the examples in this book use
Arduino UNO, which is an excellent option for educational
purposes. You'll start with an introduction to Arduino and
see firsthand how its free multi-platform integrated development
environment (IDE) makes coding easier. In many cases, you can edit
the given codes to solve your own problems. ​Arduino boards use a
variety of microcontrollers and each board is suitable for a
specific application. The Arduino IDE is also preloaded with a
broad library of codes that you can modify and practice with. So
instead of coding from scratch you can adjust the codes for similar
projects. More experienced users will save time by simply copying
nuggets of code from the various libraries. You'll also learn about
digital input/output (I/O), analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog
converters, LCDs and EEPROM. The book then moves on to serial
communication, mathematical functions, and pulse width modulation
(PWM), all important features when encoding in telecommunications.
Finally, you'll see how to control different types of motors,
review interrupts, internal comparators, and timers, and read
different sensors with Arduino. What You Will Learn Turn on/off a
device using a relay Generate analog/digital output Read an
analog/digital input Control motors with a parallel virtual machine
(PVM) and serial communication Display text with LCDs Read sensors
with Arduino and use the interrupts Write more efficient codes with
interrupts and timers Who This Book Is For Engineering
(electrical/computer/biomedical/robotic/mechatronics/aerospace) and
science (math/physic/chemistry) students, makers, and hobbyists.
Being familiar with a programming language (especially C) is an
advantage, however, it is not necessary.Â
DC-DC converters have many applications in the modern world. They
provide the required power to the communication backbones, they are
used in digital devices like laptops and cell phones, and they have
widespread applications in electric cars, to just name a few. DC-DC
converters require negative feedback to provide a suitable output
voltage or current for the load. Obtaining a stable output voltage
or current in presence of disturbances such as: input voltage
changes and/or output load changes seems impossible without some
form of control. This book tries to train the art of controller
design for DC-DC converters. Chapter 1 introduces the DC-DC
converters briefly. It is assumed that the reader has the basic
knowledge of DC-DC converter (i.e., a basic course in power
electronics). The reader learns the disadvantages of open loop
control in Chapter 2. Simulation of DC-DC converters with the aid
of Simulink (R) is discussed in this chapter as well. Extracting
the dynamic models of DC-DC converters is studied in Chapter 3. We
show how MATLAB (R) and a software named KUCA can be used to do the
cumbersome and error-prone process of modeling automatically.
Obtaining the transfer functions using PSIM (R) is studied as well.
These days, softwares are an integral part of engineering sciences.
Control engineering is not an exception by any means. Keeping this
in mind, we design the controllers using MATLAB (R) in Chapter 4.
Finally, references are provided at the end of each chapter to
suggest more information for an interested reader. The intended
audiencies for this book are practice engineers and academians.

construction. So you'll learn how to work with one of the most
powerful simulation tools for this purpose. That way you'll know
before you even go to make it whether the circuit works as
expected. Learn to work with MATLAB (R)/Simulink (R) by directly
applying and building the projects in this book. Or use it as a lab

A microcontroller is a compact, integrated circuit designed to
govern a specific operation in an embedded system. A typical
microcontroller includes a processor, memory, and input/output
(I/O) peripherals on a single chip. When they first became
available, microcontrollers solely used Assembly language. Today,
the C programming language (and some other high-level languages)
can be used as well. Some of advanced microcontrollers support
another programming technique as well: Graphical programming. In
graphical programming, the user does not write any code but draws
the block diagram of the system he wants. Then a software converts
the drawn block diagram into a suitable code for the target device.
Programming microcontrollers using graphical programming is quite
easier than programming in C or Assembly. You can implement a
complex system within hours with graphical programming while its
implementation in C may take months. These features make the
graphical programming an important option for engineers. This book
study the graphical programming of STM32F4 high-performance
microcontrollers with the aid of Simulink\textregistered\ and
Waijung blockset. Students of engineering (for instance,
electrical, biomedical, mechatronics and robotic to name a few),
engineers who work in industry, and anyone who want to learn the
graphical programming of STM32F4 can benefit from this book.
Prerequisite for this book is the basic knowledge of
MATLABi\textregistered/Simulink\textregistered.
Measurement is the process of obtaining the magnitude of a quantity
relative to an agreed standard. Electronic measurement, which is
the subject of this book, is the measurement of electronic
quantities like voltage, current, resistance, inductance, and
capacitance, to name a few. This book provides practical
information concerning the techniques in electronic measurements
and knowledge on how to use the electronic measuring instruments
appropriately. The book is composed of five chapters. Chapter 1
focuses on digital multimeters. You will learn how to use it for
measurement of AC/DC voltages/currents, resistance, connection
test, and diode forward voltage drop test. Chapter 2 focuses on
power supplies. Although power supplies are not a measurement
device, they have an undeniable role in many measurements. So,
being able to use power supplies correctly is quite important.
Chapter 3 focuses on function generators. Like the power supplies,
the function generators are not a measurement device in the first
look. However, they play a very important role in many electronic
measurements. So, being able to use a function generator correctly
is an important skill any technician or engineer needs. Chapter 4
focuses on oscilloscopes. These days, digital oscilloscopes are the
most commonly used tool in both industry and university. Because of
this, this chapter focuses on digital oscilloscopes not on the
analog ones which are almost obsolete. Chapter 5 focuses on drawing
graph of data you obtained from your measurement. Visualization of
data is very important in practical works. This chapter show how
you can use MATLAB (R) for drawing the graph of your measurements.
This book could be used a laboratory supplement for students of
electrical/mechanical/mechatronics engineering, for technicians in
the field of electrical/electronics engineering, and for anyone who
is interested to make electronic circuits.
These days, nearly all the engineering problem are solved with the
aid of suitable computer packages. This book shows how
MATLAB/Simulink could be used to solve state-space control
problems. In this book, it is assumed that you are familiar with
the theory and concepts of state-space control, i.e., you took or
you are taking a course on state-space control system and you read
this book in order to learn how to solve state-space control
problems with the aid of MATLAB/Simulink. The book is composed of
three chapters. Chapter 1 shows how a state-space mathematical
model could be entered into the MATLAB/Simulink environment.
Chapter 2 shows how a nonlinear system could be linearized around
the desired opperating point with the aid of tools provided by
MATLAB/Simulink. Finally, Chapter 3 shows how a state-space
controller could be designed with the aid MATLAB and be tested with
Simulink. The book will be usefull for students and practical
engineers who want to design a state-space control system.
Feedback control systems is an important course in aerospace
engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering,
mechanical engineering, and mechatronics engineering, to name just
a few. Feedback control systems improve the system's behavior so
the desired response can be acheived. The first course on control
engineering deals with Continuous Time (CT) Linear Time Invariant
(LTI) systems. Plenty of good textbooks on the subject are
available on the market, so there is no need to add one more. This
book does not focus on the control engineering theories as it is
assumed that the reader is familiar with them, i.e., took/takes a
course on control engineering, and now wants to learn the
applications of MATLAB (R) in control engineering. The focus of
this book is control engineering applications of MATLAB (R) for a
first course on control engineering.
Modeling is the process of formulating a mathematical description
of the system. A model, no matter how detailed, is never a
completely accurate representation of a real physical system. A
mathematical model is always just an approximation of the true,
physical reality of the system dynamics. Uncertainty refers to the
differences or errors between model and real systems and whatever
methodology is used to present these errors will be called an
uncertainty model. Successful robust control-system design would
depend on, to a certain extent, an appropriate description of the
perturbation considered. Modeling the uncertainties in the switch
mode DC-DC converters is an important step in designing robust
controllers. This book studies different techniques which can be
used to extract the uncertain model of DC-DC converters. Once the
uncertain model is extracted, robust control techniques such as and
synthesis can be used to design the robust controller. The book
composed of two case studies. The first one is a buck converter and
the second one is a Zeta converter. MATLAB (R) programming is used
extensively throughout the book. Some sections use PLECS (R) as
well. This book is intended to be guide for both academicians and
practicing engineers.
This book explains and focuses on analysis of electric circuits
using an up-to-date software package. The book is filled with
examples that students will see throughout a standard
electric circuit course. This book is a
good source to accompany and complete theoretical work
of professors. The author provides a single-source for anyone
who needs to analyse an electric circuit.
Simulation of Power Electronics Converters Using PLECS (R) is a
guide to simulating a power electronics circuit using the latest
powerful software for power electronics circuit simulation
purposes. This book assists engineers gain an increased
understanding of circuit operation so they can, for a given set of
specifications, choose a topology, select appropriate circuit
component types and values, estimate circuit performance, and
complete the design by ensuring that the circuit performance will
meet specifications even with the anticipated variations in
operating conditions and circuit component values. This book covers
the fundamentals of power electronics converter simulation, along
with an analysis of power electronics converters using PLECS. It
concludes with real-world simulation examples for applied content,
making this book useful for all those in the electrical and
electronic engineering field.
Computers play an important role in the analyzing and designing of
modern DC-DC power converters. This book shows how the widely used
analysis techniques of averaging and linearization can be applied
to DC-DC converters with the aid of computers. Obtained dynamical
equations may then be used for control design. The book is composed

MATLAB (R) programming in this chapter. The buck, buck-boost, and
boost converter are the most popular types of DC-DC converters and
used as illustrative examples in this chapter. This book can be a
good reference for researchers involved in DC-DC converters
dynamics and control.
