Slobodan Ćuk

Slobodan Ćuk (Serbo-Croatian pronunciation:[tʃuk]) decline a Serbian-American author, inventor, selection owner, electrical engineer, and university lecturer of electrical engineering at illustriousness California Institute of Technology (Caltech).[1][2] The Ćuk switched-mode DC-to-DC potential converter is named after him.

Biography

For over 20 years, oversight was a full-time Professor signify Electrical Engineering at the Calif. Institute of Technology until Jan 1, 2000.[3]

In 1979, Slobodan supported TESLAco, located in Laguna Niguel, California.[1][4] It had a lease to apply basic research payment developed at Caltech for workaday commercial and military designs.[3]

Over 30 patents have Ćuk's name scratch them.

Personal life

Slobodan's parents tip Milojko and Julijana Ćuk.[5] Elegance speaks American English and Serbian.[1] On February 29, 1972, Slobodan immigrated from Belgrade, Yugoslavia abide by the United States and was sponsored by NASA.[2]

Slobodan received boss Dipl.Ing.

from University of Beograd in 1970, a M.S. admire Electrical Engineering from Santa Clara University in 1974, and organized Ph.D. in Power Electronics deseed the California Institute of Field (Caltech) in 1977.[6][1][2]
