Power Electronics Controller Design Using PSIM and MATLAB - by Ilsong Kim (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Systematic controller design for power conversion systems using simulation tools

Designing controllers for power conversion systems typically demands advanced mathematics and significant development time, with no universal solution across topologies. Power Electronics Controller Design Using PSIM and MATLAB presents a systematic, simplified method for controller design applicable to a wide range of power conversion systems. Written by experienced electrical engineer Ilsong Kim, PhD, this book integrates theory with immediate practical application.

The text covers controller design methods for all major types of power conversion systems, including converters, solar inverters, grid inverters, energy storage systems, and motors. Every circuit diagram and source code is fully disclosed, enabling direct implementation in real hardware. PSIM simulations and MATLAB computations accompany each theoretical concept, allowing readers to verify and apply design procedures step by step throughout each chapter.

The book also provides:

• A methodical approach that simplifies mathematically complex controller design processes for diverse power conversion system topologies
• Fully disclosed circuit diagrams and source code ready for direct implementation in actual hardware applications
• Integrated PSIM simulation examples paired with MATLAB code enabling immediate verification of theoretical controller design concepts
• A structured format suitable for one-semester or two-semester courses in advanced power electronics and renewable energy

Designed for graduate students in power electronics, senior undergraduates in electrical engineering, and industry practitioners, this book connects controller design theory directly to implementable solutions. Its fully disclosed source code and circuit diagrams make it a practical working reference for both academic coursework and professional power conversion system development.
