Sneak Circuits of Power Electronic Converters by Bo Zhang
The first treatment of advanced knowledge of electricalsneak circuits and its analysis method in powerelectronics The work on sneak circuit and its analysis methods for powerconverters contributes to the reliability of power electronicsystems worldwide. Most books in the subject concentrate onelectronic systems, but this book is perhaps the first to examinepower electronic systems. It describes the sneak circuitphenomena in power converters, introduces some SCA methods forpower electronic systems and proposes how to eliminate and make useof sneak circuits. The book is divided into three separatesections. Firstly, the sneak circuit paths and sneak circuitoperating conditions are discussed in different kinds of powerconverters, including resonant switched capacitor converters, basicDC-DC converters, soft-switching converters and Z-sourceconverters; Secondly, the sneak circuit analysis guidelinesfor power converters based on generalized matrix, adjacency matrixand Boolean matrix are presented respectively; Thirdly, thesneak circuit elimination techniques are introduced and verified inseveral power converters, with applications of sneak circuitsdescribed in conclusion. Written by a lead author withextensive academic and industrial experience, the book provides acomplete introduction and reference to students and professionalsalike. Contents include: Fundamental Concepts, SCA of Resonant SwitchedCapacitor Converters, SC of DC-DC Converters, SC Analysis Method(including Boolian Matrix), and Applications of SC in PowerConverters. Highlights the advanced research works in the sneak circuitanalysis, by a leading author in the field Original in its treatment of power electronics converters; mostother books concentrating on electronics systems, and aimed at bothintroductory and advanced levels Offers guidelines for industry professionals involved in thedesign of power electronic systems, enabling early detection ofpotential problems Essential reading for Graduate students in ElectricalEngineering: Engineers and Researchers in Power Electronics

Power Electronic Packaging by
Power Electronic Packaging presents an in-depth overview of power electronic packaging design, assembly,reliability and modeling. Since there is a drastic difference between IC fabrication and power electronic packaging, the book systematically introduces typical power electronic packaging design, assembly, reliability and failure analysis and material selection so readers can clearly understand each task's unique characteristics. Power electronic packaging is one of the fastest growing segments in the power electronic industry, due to the rapid growth of power integrated circuit (IC) fabrication, especially for applications like portable, consumer, home, computing and automotive electronics. This book also covers how advances in both semiconductor content and power advanced package design have helped cause advances in power device capability in recent years. The author extrapolates the most recent trends in the book's areas of focus to highlight where further improvement in materials and techniques can drive continued advancements, particularly in thermal management, usability, efficiency, reliability and overall cost of power semiconductor solutions.
