RESEARCH:

My research is in Power Electronics and Mixed-Signal IC Design for power management, the enabling technologies for smart and efficient utilization of conventional and renewable energy sources. Prof. Robert Erickson and myself co-direct industry-supported Colorado Power Electronics Center (CoPEC). My current research interests include:

• Digital control of switch-mode power converters
• Mixed-signal IC design for power management applications
• Power management of low-power, battery-operated systems
• Simulation and CAD Tools for Power Electronics
• Analysis, modeling, control and topologies of DC-DC converters and AC-DC rectifiers with power factor correction
• Resonant and soft-switching techniques
