    What is power electronics?
    Power electronics is defined as the applications of solid state electronics for the control
    and conversion of electric power.
    Power electronics circuits manage the flow of electrical energy between some sort of
    source and a load. These circuits handle power flow at levels much higher than the
    individual device ratings.
    A basic power electronic system
