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

2008 Data Breach Investigations Report


2008 Data Breach Investigations Report
English | 29 pages | PDF | 1 MB

INTRODUCTION: In a real sense, this report is a “post-mortem” examination of hundreds of data breach victims. Just as the forensic scientist seeks clues to the sequence of events surrounding a crime, the cause of death, and the identity of suspects, the Verizon Business Investigative Response team is focused on examining evidence of computer crime. Common to investigations in both the physical and cyber worlds is a dependence on cold, hard facts. Building a credible case often requires the collection of heaps of data.
To that end, the 2008 Verizon Business Data Breach Investigations Report integrates a vast amount of factual evidence from forensic investigations over the last four years. The study is unique in that it offers an objective, first-hand view of data breaches directly from the casebooks of our Investigative Response team. Tens of thousands of data points weave together the stories and statistics from compromise victims around the world. We have attempted to interpret their tales and it is our hope that your organization will learn from these findings and thereby avoid their end.

Computer Modelling of Electrical Power Systems


Jos Arrillaga, Neville R. Watson “Computer Modelling of Electrical Power Systems"
Wiley | 2001-04-18 | ISBN: 0471872490 | 382 pages | PDF | 15,1 MB


Computer models can be used to simulate the changing states of electrical power systems. Such simulations enable the power engineer to study performance and predict disturbances.
Focusing on the performance of the power system boosted by the FACTS. (Flexible Alternate Current Transmission Systems), this timely update of a highly successful text responds to recent developments in power electronics.
Comprehensive coverage includes
? The mathematical background, algorithms and the basic tools needed to study complex power systems, their interaction and likely response to different types of network pathologies or disturbances
? The latest improvements in network modelling techniques
? Power electronics equipment
Written by an internationally renowned author in the field, this text is a valuable reference resource for practising engineers responsible for power supply systems as well as electrical engineering postgraduates.





Practical Design of Power Supplies


Ron Lenk “Practical Design of Power Supplies"
Wiley-IEEE Press | 2005-07-11 | ISBN: 047175045X | 288 pages | PDF | 12,9 MB


Practical Design of Power Supplies
"In a rare and very welcome departure from the power industry's standard technical treatise, Ron Lenk's book . . . offers a clear, pragmatic view of the practical real-world aspects governing power supply design . . . . Engineers at all levels . . . can expect to gain an enlightened perspective normally gained only after years of design experience."
—Frank Wahl, Managing Editor, PCIM Magazine

"This is a real hands-on reference in which Ron has done an outstanding job of combining just enough theory for understanding, together with several lifetimes' worth of experience. I am confident that it is destined to become dog-eared and worn on the top of every power supply designer's desk."
—Bob Mammano, Vice President Advanced Technology, Unitrode

Practical Design of Power Supplies details key techniques and offers advice to engineers and technicians who want to design and build power supplies that work the first time they are turned on. Leading authority Ron Lenk presents current, experiment-based information that can save hours of research and design time.

Containing many handy "Practice Notes" and real-world examples, Practical Design of Power Supplies is an excellent how-to reference to keep by your side throughout the design, lab, and production phases. The topics covered will be immediately useful in everyday circuits and systems work:
Common terms and instrumentation
How to design successful magnetics
How to compensate the feedback loop to obtain stable operation
Practical EMI
Topology selection
Worst-case analysis

Practical Design of Power Supplies will be especially useful to designers who need to understand and implement the concepts behind loop compensation and magnetics design.
