Product Description
Harness Powerful SPICE Simulation and Design Tools to Develop Cutting-Edge Switch-Mode Power Supplies Switch-Mode Power Supplies: SPICE Simulations and Practical Designs is a comprehensive resource on using SPICE as a power conversion design companion. This book uniquely bridges analysis and market reality to teach the development and marketing of state-of-the art switching converters. Invaluable to both the graduating student and the experienced design engineer, this guide explains how to derive founding equations of the most popular converters…design safe, reliable converters through numerous practical examples…and utilize SPICE simulations to virtually breadboard a converter on the PC before using the soldering iron. Filled with more than 600 illustrations, Switch-Mode Power Supplies: SPICE Simulations and Practical Designs enables you to: - Derive founding equations of popular converters
- Understand and implement loop control via the book-exclusive small-signal models
- Design safe, reliable converters through practical examples
- Use SPICE simulations to virtually breadboard a converter on the PC
- Access design spreadsheets and simulation templates on the accompanying CD-ROM, with numerous examples running on OrCADË, ICAPSË, µCapË, TINAË, and more

Christophe Basso worked very hard giving years of his life to produce the best Switch-Mode Power Supply book available, by far. I have a large collection of books on SMPS and although many are very good books, they are not nearly as complete or practical as Basso's book. He derives all his equations and then shows many real world example designs from start to finish. In my opinion and the opinion of many power electronics professionals and power electronics college students, the averaged switch model is the easiest to create and most intuitive to understand and use. Basso has digested the best information from the best references and then creatively enhanced many models and invented new SPICE models/sub-circuits you need for large and small signal analysis and simulations with the SPICE of your choice. His knowledge of creating analog behavioral models (ABM) that perform just like the real components or circuit functions, is amazing. He created ABM PWMs from individual ABM components. Everything he creates, he verifies. You buy this book at a bargain price and get a CD with all the models/sub-circuits you need to check your existing designs and start new designs with the highest confidence. Once you look at his ABMs, you will want to create some of your own because it is so much fun. In a short time, I've used his models/sub-circuits and his techniques with PSPICE to identify lack of or no phase margin in Switch-Mode Power Supplies for a huge corporation. I have many more power supplies to analyze/simulate and several new ones to design.
I've worked as a power electronics engineer for many years and I'm so thankful to Christophe Basso for working so hard and smart to produce the best Switch-Mode Power Supply book ever written. Very thorough and very practical. Get this book and apply Basso's knowledge, techniques, and SPICE models/sub-circuits to your designs and you will never have another unstable Switch-Mode or Linear Power Supply.

This book is a must have for the power supply designer! I own about every book written on the subject, and this ranks with the top 5. I feel that it is especially valuable to the reader who has studied the subject reading other top books in the field.

• Switch-mode Power Supplies By Basso Book Review 02 November, 2008
This book is far more detailed than its predecessor and as the author has promised, it took care the majority of complaints. It is difficult to write any book about this subject that would satisfy everybody. You have to look at it with an open mind. It is not meant as a replacement for academia, it is meant to be a practical design guide for circuit simulations as the title suggests. I am happy with the increased content and I believe that anybody who has analog design basics but not very strong simulation skills will definitely benefit from reading the book and learning a number of very useful simulation tricks as I had benefited from the book's predecessor too. Highly recommended both for entry and medium skill level readers. It can also serve as a library of simulation guide for the well educated in this subject. Do not expect this book to show you how to design a switching power supply, you get the practical aspects of how to from the Pressman books. The purpose of this book is to teach you how to simulate switching power supplies using the various versions of SPICE which it does very well. In addition it has a nice summary of academic introductions to various switching power supply modeling techniques and guides you through how various well known individuals had advanced simulation models.

• A Practic Simulation Book 21 April, 2008
Each simulation problem is well resolved with examples and a brief of theory is also included in each. Very good for Spice users but not to much useful for others simulation package users.

• Excellent Reference For The Novice And Experienced Professional. 02 August, 2008
This book should be in the library of anyone involved with DC-DC converters. The book covers the theory of converters and the SPICE applications are very helpful. I used the Top Spice demo to simulate the buck converter and was quickly running simulations.
