ow2Power.com is an online power electronics publication and website for engineers. It's edited by me, David Morrison. You'll see a little picture of me on the How2Power.com home page and in the monthly e-newsletter, How2Power Today. This will help you to identify me, when we run into each other at APEC, ECCE, CES, NSREC, WiPDA, EMC+SIPI, ITEC, or various other conferences I attend throughout the year. I placed that picture on my website 10 years ago when I launched it, so please imagine a few more gray hairs and wrinkles when trying to match me to the photo.

How2Power.com is not your average power electronics publication, or average anything. If you're a PSMA member, than you have more than a passing interest in power electronics and you have probably seen our monthly e-newsletter, How2Power Today. If so, you know we publish very technical articles covering a wide range of issues in power supply design. We also dig deeply into the practical but unglamorous issues like Magnetics, Safety & Compliance, and increasingly, EMI/EMC issues.

If we're able to go into greater depth in this newsletter, that's because we get such valuable contributions from very knowledgeable engineers in industry. I can't name the hundreds who have contributed articles over the years, but I feel compelled to name some of the most prolific: Kevin Parmenter, Jim Spangler, Dennis Feucht, Steve Sandler, Tim Hegarty, Christophe Basso, Viktor Vogman, and Gregory Mirsky.

While we're very proud of the How2Power Today newsletter, if that's all you know about How2Power.com, you've only seen the tip of the iceberg. We have a unique article search tool called the How2Power Design Guide that lets you search our free article database using a search menu geared to power design. The search results include our summaries of over 1000 technical articles relating to power design from How2Power and other free, reputable sources.

How2Power also has detailed special sections devoted to:

• Power Magnetics       
• SiC & GaN Technology
• Motor Drives
• Space (Rad Hard) Power
• Military Power Supplies
• Safety & Compliance
• Power Supply EMI
• FAE Confidential!

We also have a handy power electronics consultants directory and one of the most extensive industry events calendar. While this calendar can be  useful to engineers, it's even more helpful for sales or marketing people trying to figure our where to exhibit their power components or power supplies.

Any description of How2Power would be incomplete without a few words about our audience. While we have extensive readership at power semiconductor and power supply companies, our readership includes engineers working in a wide range of industries. This sampling of well-known reader companies will help to paint a picture of our audience.

Thanks to our conference activities, How2Power also has extensive readership among instructors and grad students at universities across the world. Many who are students today will be your engineering colleagues tomorrow.

There's more to tell about How2Power. But we have always tried to respect your time by not flooding you with emails or ads, giving you lots of summaries of great articles, and making them easy to access and read. So please explore How2Power.com and if you have any questions, feel free to write me at david@how2power.com.
