Converts DC to AC power by
switching the DC input voltage (or
current) in a pre-determined
sequence so as to generate AC
voltage (or current) output.

From the curves, it may be seen that the thyristors may start to conduct
at different instants in the half cycle, depending on the nature of the
load. To ensure that the thyristors will begin to conduct when required,
each must be gated continuously throughout the half
cycle.

Produces two complementary
pulses to control half-bridge
transistors.
Problem:
Voltage may drop when
the input voltage is
decreased.
Solution:
A feedback network may
be added for voltage
regulation.
Half-Bridge Converter
Chops the 12 VDC to produce
a 12 V, 100 kHz, square pulse
Problem:
IRF740A MOSFETs has an
Rds(on) = 0.55, resulting in
high power losses.
Solution:
Choose IRF530 MOSFETs
with an Rds(on) = 0.16
Full-bridge Inverter
Converts 170 VDC to a
120 Vrms, 60 Hz, sine
wave
