Mammano’s Fundamentals of Power Supply Design bridges that gap perfectly. Published by as part of their educational series, the 2017 edition reflects modern challenges: higher efficiency demands, smaller form factors, lower quiescent current, and the rise of digital control. Mammano writes with the clarity of a teacher who has lived through the evolution from linear regulators to multi-phase synchronous buck converters.
Mammano does not just give equations; he provides . For each topology, he shows how to select the inductor value, output capacitor, and switching frequency based on acceptable ripple current and transient response. Mammano’s Fundamentals of Power Supply Design bridges that
