Five Laws of Power Electronic Circuits
1. The average voltage across an inductor over a complete switching cycle in the steady state is zero.
2. The average current through a capacitor over a complete switching cycle in the steady state is zero.
3. Voltage across a capacitor is a continuous function. (Capacitors do not make discontinuous voltage changes.)
4. Current through an inductor is a continuous function. (Inductors do not make discontinuous current changes.)
5. Energy balance is always true.
