Build a 300W Pure Sine Wave Inverter Nowadays we can’t even imagine a world without power. Even an intermittent power failure is so inconvenient. As we depend on electricity in many important areas of our life, it is important to take persuasion against power failures and that’s where the inverter plays an important role. There are multiple types of inverters in the market,… |

Pure Sine Wave Inverter Using Arduino Inverter circuits are often needed where it is not possible to get AC supply from the grid. An inverter circuit is used to convert DC power to AC power and it can be divided into two types that is Pure Sine Wave Inverters or Modified Square Wave Inverters. These pure sine wave inverters are very expensive, where the modified square wave inverters are inexpensive. Learn more… |

PWM Inverter Circuit using TL494 An inverter is a circuit that converts Direct Current (DC) to Alternating Current (AC). A PWM inverter is a type of circuit that uses modified square waves to simulate the effects of Alternating Current (AC), which is suitable for powering most of your household appliances. I say most-of because there generally exist two types of inverters, the first type is the so-called a… |

Switched Capacitor Voltage Converter A switched capacitor voltage converter performs energy transfer and voltage conversion using capacitors. There are mainly two types of switched capacitor voltage converters, first is the voltage inverter circuit and the second is the voltage doubler circuit. These types of circuits are commonly known as charge pump circuits. In this project, we will… |

Understanding Dot Convention in Transformers From large power stations to compact SMPS circuits, transformers can be found almost everywhere. Though there are many types of transformers and their exact working differs based on the application, the basic working of the Transformer remains the same. When examining transformer circuit schematics, you'll notice "dot" symbols placed on transformer windings. These dots… |

An Overview of Dual Converters In the previous tutorial, we saw how a Dual Power Supply Circuit is designed. Now, we learn about Dual Converters, which can convert AC to DC and DC to AC at the same time. As the name suggests, Dual Converter has two converters, one converter works as a rectifier (Converts AC to DC) and the other converter works as an inverter (converts DC into AC). Both converters are… |
