This course follows the NPTEL course lectures of  High Power Multilevel Converters- Analysis, design and operational issues offered by Prof. Anandarup Das, IIT Delhi.

The course covers different types of high power converters used in the industry for applications in HVDC, FACTS, Motor Drives, Power quality improvement. Traditional converters like NPC and emerging converters like modular multilevel converters will be covered. Operational issues and design considerations for these medium/high voltage high power converters will be covered. The course will discuss many practical issues faced in the industry while designing and operation of these converters.

This is a program elective course for both UG and PG students. Here is a brief syllabus of the course: Introduction to CMOS analog integrated circuit design. MOS transistor as the basic design unit: device structure, I-V characteristics, second order effects, SPICE models. Basic amplifier topologies: CS, CG, CD, cascode amplifiers. Differential amplifiers: single ended and differential operation, small signal analysis. Current mirrors: passive and active topologies. Performance parameters of analog circuits: frequency response, noise. Feedback in analog integrated circuits: types of feedback, stability and frequency compensation. Operational amplifiers: topologies, performance parameters. Layout of analog integrated circuits.
