Power Electronics
Coursera
Robert Erickson's first course in the CU Boulder power electronics specialization: analyzing step-down and step-up switched-mode converters with volt-second balance, then building steady-state equivalent circuit models that predict efficiency from inductor copper loss and conduction loss. Includes LTspice exercises.

All About Circuits - Power Electronics
Free web textbook material on solid-state power conversion, covering unregulated, linear regulated, switching, and ripple-regulated supplies alongside rectifier and thyristor circuits. Working through it gives you a working picture of how power supply stages behave before tackling formal converter analysis.
Research Roadmap on Grid-Forming Inverters
NREL technical report defining grid-forming inverter control and its role in grids dominated by inverter-based resources. Covers device and system-level control approaches, stability under low system strength, modelling and validation needs, and the open research questions.
Power Electronics
The standard university text on switch-mode power conversion, covering diode and thyristor rectifiers, dc-dc and dc-ac topologies, power semiconductor devices, magnetics, and motor drive applications. This Indian adaptation of the third edition reorganizes topic coverage and adds new material.
Fundamentals of Power Electronics
Second edition of the standard reference on converter design, working from steady-state analysis through averaged switch modeling, ac dynamics, control loop design, input filters, magnetics, low-harmonic rectifiers, and soft switching. Prepares you to model and stabilize practical switching converters.
