Summary: Excellent and throrough text on Switching Power Supplies
Comment: After reviewing this text, I found that it contains a wealth of information on various types of DC-DC converters including boost, buck, flyback, forward, and other topologies. The book gives a good treatment of the theory of operation along with describing equations and also practical information for less experienced engineers or technicians. It also contains a good treatment on control for SMPS's including the details of how Pulse Width Modulation feedback control works. I highly recommend this text for the practicing electronics or electrical engineer. The book is very thorough and it should be in your collection if you are involved in the design and/or analysis of switched supplies, associated circuitry, and power magnetics.

Summary: A very good survey book
Comment: Pressman's book is one of those good reference books that belongs on every designer's shelf. It contains a broad sweep of the subject, and is very useful when doing a topography trade study. But the best is at the ends of the chapters, where Pressman has referenced his sources. One can then investigate the more detailed source material.
The limitation of Pressman's book is the lack of depth in the subject. That means this is not the only book you'll need. You will also have to get those references, because the information in this book is really only excerpts from the thirty years of developments summarized here. But that limitation is really Pressman's charter- a summary of the art and science of switching power supply design.
Rating: 5
Summary: Pressman is the guru of switchers
Comment: This book is for anyone who designs, debugs or wants a comprehensive understanding of switchers. I had the first edition of this book (that I lost) that was about half this size, but there's so much new info, that it's easily worth double the price. It's well written and appeals to beginners and experts alike.
