CD CONTENTS This CD contains four folders containing materials which support and enhance the book Power Electronics:

Converters, Applications, and Design by Ned Mohan, Tore Undeland, and William Robbins. The four folders are: 1. 2. 3. 4. Chapter Slides New Problems PSpice-based Examples Transformer & Inductor Design.

Each folder has its own ReadMe document which lists in detail what is in the fo lder and any specific requirements for using the material in that folder. These ReadMe files should be examined first before using the materials in the specific folder. The Chapter Slides folder contains two subfolders, one entitled Chapter slides i n PDF and the other entitled Chapter Slides in PowerPoint. Each subfolder contai ns the same information but one folder contains PDF files while the other has th e same files in PowerPoint format. Within each folder are 30 separate files, one for each chapter of the book which contains all the figures in that chapter, us ually one figure per slide with a few bulleted comments. The slides can be used in a variety of ways such as preparing lectures or for self-study and review. The New Problems folder contains over 100 new problems which can be used for pro blem assignments in a class, as example problems in lectures, or for additional problem solving practice. There are four files in the folder, New Problems Chptr s 1-18 in both Word and PDF format and New Problems Chptrs 19-30 in Word and PDF format. Within each file, the problems are organized on a chapter-by-chapter ba sis. The PSpice-based examples folder contains 27 different power electronic circuit examples which are ready to run. Each example covers a different topic. Two PDF files are also contained in the folder: one discusses how to setup and use the examples and the other shows the circuit schematic of each example and several s uggested problems or questions to be answered using PSpice. The Transformer & Inductor Design folder contains two Excel spreadsheets, one fo r designing inductors and one for designing transformers which are used in power electronic converters. These spreadsheets automate the design process as descri bed in Chapter 30 of the book and they contain detailed information on most of t he commonly used cores. In addition to the ReadMe files, there is a PowerPoint f ile entitled Magnetic Design Method which explains in detail how the spreadsheet is organized and various ways in which it might be utilized. The book has a website at: http://www.wiley.com/college/mohan. A variety of info rmation will be posted there including FAQs and updates to CD files.
