a broad overview of power electron-
ics technology, its applications, and
its future scope. Besides introducing
power electronics to nascent engi-
neers, he discussed power electron-
ics products, including a variety of
power converters.
During the second part of the ses-
sion, the focus shifted to uninterrupt-
ible power supplies (UPSs). It began
with an introduction to UPS systems
and was followed by a discussion
about their evolution, why we need
them, and a myriad UPS topologies.

The later part of the workshop cov-
ered the design of UPS systems, with
an emphasis on system specifications.
Some of the topics included static
switch devices, output filters, inverter
power devices, dc link capacitors, bat-
tery banks, and rectifier power devic-
es. The workshop concluded with the
students completing a task based on
the design of power electronics prod-
ucts. Their ideas and solutions were
discussed afterward.
Each session of the workshop was
followed by an interactive period with

Dr. Mangal, wherein students could
share their ideas and ask questions.
The attendees participated enthusias-
tically, and many senior engineering
students found the workshop very use-
ful for their school projects. In sum-
mary, the participants obtained a new
insight on power electronics and ap-
plying them to enhance and improve
current technologies. The session con-
cluded with Adharsh offering a note of
thanks and Prof. Dinesh presenting a
memento to Dr. Mangal. Thirty PELS
members participated.
