The Power Sources Manufacturers Association (PSMA) announced that it is again making available Nathan Grossner's classic treatise, Transformers for Electronic Circuits - Second Edition. The first reprint of this work sold out and this second reprint is now available. PSMA members may now purchase this important text online, directly from PSMA, at the discounted price of $55. The non-member PSMA online price is $75. Non-members may also purchase it through How2Power or through Amazon. This text is a complete, one-stop guide to transformer and inductor design and applications for everyone who designs, builds, or uses power magnetics components. Throughout this book, the author combines analysis and synthesis and all theory is related to the solution of real-world problems.

Sections of the text provide guidance in the use of transformers and inductors in power electronics and in digital and pulse circuits. Also included is design information about other forms of high-frequency magnetics such as transmission-line transformers, hybrid transformers, ferroresonant tranformers, flyback converter magnetics and inductors used in switch-mode power converter designs.

Special attention is given in the book to the proper control of dielectric stress, corona and thermal factors in high-voltage magnetics designs. Modeling methods for magnetic parts are also included and treated in some detail. This book is an essential reference book for any engineer involved in the design and development of modern-day magnetic components.

According to Steve Carlsen, co-chair of the PSMA Magnetics Committee, “Grossner's book should be an essential part of every power supply designer’s technical library. The initial PSMA reprint edition sold out and thanks to PSMA, it is once again available after being out of print for several years.”
