Title: A very good survey book
Review: 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.
