Overview
Overview
Learn how to design digital power supplies from ground up quickly and easily with this in-depth laboratory based design workshop and receive free software to ease design worth as part of course fees.
This workshop is 4 days long and is aimed at analog PSU designers and embedded systems engineers who need to design high performance stable digital power supplies and Digital PFCs.
During the workshop you will learn how to design stable analog and digital control loops in both voltage mode and current mode for DC/DC and Off-Line Applications. You will then design, code, implement and test several digital power supplies in our well-equipped laboratory during days 1 to 3. On the 4th day, design and implementation of digital PFCs is covered in detail to address the most recent needs of our industry.
First the engineering concepts, theoretical material and step-by-step design procedures are thought in the class and then these are all put onto practice with numerous laboratory exercises on real digital power supplies. The design practices taught in the class can be applied to any MCU with all labs based on ST's ARM based STM32F334.
All attendees will receive:
- 4 days of intensive engineering training and lab based exercises
- All necessary software templates and easy to program exercises to start you on your digital power projects.
- Workshop material, lab notes, lunch and refreshments
- The attendees may also obtain a free trial license for Biricha's Power Supply Design Software WDS and PFC Loop Design Software PLD if they wish
The participants will never work with more than 2 person at a workstation. Each workstation is extremely well equipped PC with relevant development software, oscilloscope and several digital power supplies.

Testimonials from Past Workshop Participants
- Here is what people are saying about past digital power workshops:
- "I highly recommend this workshop for engineers interested in an introductory class on digital power. I now have the ground work to read white papers on Digital Power to further my education."
"This was one of the best workshops of any kind that I have attended. The class content was very informational and the labs were engaging."
"This course provides a good over-view of the theory and then allows student to submerge into the practical designing aspect of a digital power supply. Very enlightening and powerful course."
"This is an excellent, solid, theory based seminar. It takes the mystery out of digital control."
"There are few instructors or workshops that clearly and efficiently present a continuous stream of valuable information. This is one of the best workshops I have attended in years and I left each day looking forward to the next. Outstanding material and presenter."
"The workshop has cleared the confusion surrounding what is possible with digital power and how to implement it. I will use this material to develop digital power solutions for automotive applications."
"The material is supported by many practical examples and tutorials, and includes a brief question and answer session at the end of each section."
"It was extremely useful hands-on practice orientated workshop, helping understanding in-deep design challenges."
"The workshop is very informative and interactive. You just don't dig in to the theories but get a real feeling by doing hands-on lab."
