I have used classical control techniques earlier but could never have thought the way it has been taught here... A whole new approach has been taken up to design the controller for converters in an extremely simple manner... The approximations taken up not only provide a close answer to the actual solution but also change the way a gives a better visualisation for the frequency design...

The 3rd course in the specialization is more detailed and explained thoroughly. He has taken some extra lectures on Bode Plots as well, which is needed for the course. Tough quizzes, great assignments! And Dr. Robert Erickson is amazing as usual! A very helpful course in Power Electronics domain!

Those who are going for MSc and PhD in power electronics,for them this is a great resource. I really enjoyed the course. If I get the opportunity to have prof. Dr. Erickson's live class as his student, I will consider myself the luckiest man on earth. I wish I have that opportunity.

I have got another great experience through this coursere. Thanks to Professor and the community on the forum, I was able to understand much better the converter control techniques. I am looking forward to finish all the Power Electronic Specialisation courses. Thank you!

If possible, please keep some more assignments and extend the duration of course by one or two weeks exclusively for those assignments. The assignments for this course are quite challenging, except for week 4. So please make us do more assignments.

Professor Erickson is really good in classical control. In a world where Bode plots are considered obsolete dinosaurs, he extracts so much info from these "old-fashioned" tools and offers deep insight and quick practical solutions

The analysis and materials of this course are very useful. A great section. If the MATLAB script for calculating the converter Poles and Zeros can be provided will be even better.

This is the important part of converters to learn.It shows how much complex the systems will be and shows how can we minimize complexity by taking approximations.

Excellent course..very inspiring professors...Thank you Prof. Erickson, Prof. Maksimovic, Prof. Afridi...Looking forward for courses on resonant converters...

This is a great course to get a basic foundation of bode plot techniques and fundamental control theory in relation to power converter design.

One of the best courses I've ever taken. It was not so easy to follow, which made me review some topics of my Engineering course.

It was not easy, but I learn a lot about how to make a transfer function of an all system.

It was a really very good experience.

An important course for understanding the design procedures of converters as well as the importance of control system in them.

Very detailed yet concise. Homework is tailored at an appropriate difficulty. A lot of insight on feedback control.

I wish I should had done this course earlier. I obtained clear understanding on converter control basic concepts.

I cannot recommend this course as well as the whole specialization enough. Absolute value for the money spent.

Excellent course for starters in power electronics and great knowledge tool for industry people.

Will give a brief glimpse of how control happens in the converters. A very good course.

It was a great course! I learned so much and the difficulty was just right!

Great course! I really learned the basics of DC-DC converter controls

best course to have practical insight in designing control circuits

One of the best courses, it changes my perspective about control!

Not easy but worth it as you get a good understanding of things.

A nice course to polish your converter control concepts

Excellent! Time consuming and difficult but excellent!
