Convert a Square Wave Inverter into a Sine Wave Inverter
In this post I have explained a few circuit concepts which can be employed for converting or modifying any ordinary square wave inverter to sophisticated sine wave inverter design. Before studying the various designs I have explained in this article, it would be interesting to know the factors which typically makes a sine wave inverter […]
How to Design an Inverter – Theory and Tutorial
In this post I have explained the fundamental tips and theories which may be useful for the newcomers while designing or dealing with basic inverter concepts. I have explained more. What’s an Inverter It’s a device which converts or inverts a low voltage, high DC potential into a low current high alternating voltage such as […]
IC 556 Pure Sine Wave Inverter Circuit
In the following post I have explained a pure sine wave inverter circuit using the IC 556 which forms the main sine wave processor device in the circuit. How it Works The presented design actually produces a modified sine wave output, but the waveform is highly processed and constitutes an exact equivalent of a sinusoidal […]
Single Transformer Inverter/Charger Circuit
In this post I have explained how to build an innovative inverter circuit with a single transformer that works both as an inverter and a battery charger transformer, I have explained the details from the following discussion. The Circuit Objective Though you may find many inverters having an integral battery charger, the section will mostly […]
Designing a Grid-Tie Inverter Circuit
A grid tie inverter works quite like a conventional inverter, however the power output from such inverter is fed and tied with the AC mains from the utility grid supply. As long as the mains AC supply is present, the inverter contributes its power to the existing grid mains supply, and stops the process when […]
