This advance course bridges the gap between analog power electronics design and production-grade digital control implementation.  Participants master the complete digital control design flow: from plant modeling and transfer function derivation, through z-domain compensator design, to practical fixed-point code deployment on microcontrollers and DSPs.  The course covers digital control of DC-DC converters, three-phase inverters, and motor drives using MATLAB/Simulink for design validation and Qspice for circuit-level simulation.  Building on the RA00072 Intermediate Power Electronics course, this offering addresses the most in-demand skill gap in today's power electronic workforce.  Topics span average-current-mode control, voltage-mode control, state-space representation, discrete-time systems analysis, anti-windup, dead-time compensation, and code generation for fixed-point processors.  Participants leave with a complete digital control design toolkit applicable to EV drivetrains, renewable energy inverters, industrials motor drives, and data center power systems.
