3. Simple Power Inverter : An Introduction
Word inverter denotes the class of power conversion circuits
Operates from a dc voltage source or dc current source
Converts it into ac voltage or current source
Reverse function of ac to dc converter
Input of inverter circuit is a dc source but it can be derived from a ac source such as utility ac
supply into its charging unit
The final ac output may be of different nature in frequency and amplitude

13. CIRCUIT DESCRIPTION CONTD..
square wave pulses are pre amplified by TIP122 transistors.
amplified current is used to switch 2N3055 transistors to drive the inverter
transformer.
Zener Diode and capacitor C1 provides a constant 9V for IC
When the output at pin 10 is low Q1 Q3 and Q4 turns up
current flows through upper winding of transformer .
When output at pin 10 is high Q2,Q5&Q6 turns up
current flows through Lower winding of transformer.
The 229-231V AC output
is available across the high-impedance winding
of the transformer’s primary windings.
