Dear honored forum members. Thanks in advance for any information and help. The title of this post might not be technically correct, but it incompases the issues that I am working with. My goal is to charge a 48 volt batterypack from a 12 dc volt source. I need a rather high amperage...

Hi, i am building an inverter 12VDC- 120VAC, 50 Hz with square wave as gate signal for MOSFET. Looks like my circuit works fine because i am getting square out -12 to 12 AC. Now i am using transformer to step up 12 VAC to 120 VAC. But i am experiencing some problems. But i am supplying...

Hey Guys, I'm having trouble designing an inverter to power an ac motor using a fuel cell with MATLAB. With the inverter, the output current of the DC converter dips below 0 and the fuel cell does not like that at all because it causes a 'ln of -ve number' error. I have tried placing an...

Hello, I tried to build inverter circuit by using following link. http://www.geocities.com/ CapeCanaveral/lab/5185/ circuit.html (SCR inverter) I tried to run this circuit in Multisim software but I did not get correct result. Please help me to simulate this circuit. If you...

I was wondering if there is a simple way to make a power inverter (DC to AC) that is solid state, and does not use a coil. Actually, I'm not sure if there is a difference, but "pulsing DC" might be more what I'm thinking. I don't necessarily need the current to flow in reverse, but just to...

Hello All: A project of mine requires a bi-directional inverter that will take a 12VDC (most likely) battery to single phase 120VAC pure sine wave for utility tie (mains power). I will also require the inverter to be able to rectify to utility's power to charge the battery as well. Since...

Hello. I'm new here. I just discovered this fora thru Google and was hoping someone could help me. It will be obvious in a second that I'm not an engineer, so please pardon the silly/simple question: I have a device that was built for a car/RV that I want to run at home. (It's a...

Hello Every1 I'm doing a project on PWM Z-source inverter(Forget about the voltage ratings for now). I have a basic doubt in its operation. As we all Know Z-source inverter can provide both Buck and Boost output. For a boost output (in case of 1phase H-Bridge type) we have to fire both the...

how can i get greater performance from an standard inverter duty motor( marathon black max). I am in the process of buiding an inverter/controller to use as part of an EV conversion.

I have a UPS at home - for the whole house. However, everytime there is a power outage, my computer restarts. It does not restart when the power comes back! I had an old computer UPS that I had that I connected to the computer. Now when the power goes, the computer does not restart - but the...

I have two inverters (Different brands) one is a 3,000 watt, and the other is a 5,000 watt, which I would to draw from both, to feed one tool, is there a way to align the cycles so that they can supply a single breaker panel?

what components will i need to build a 240volt inverter.

Hi there I need an inverter to convert a dc current of 24v and 40amp to 220v & 4amp ac current so I went to buy one but they asked me for the inverter number and they didn't understand what i said (the last characteristics) so what is the number of the inverter can anyone help me? thanks in...

urgent...PWM--->Multilevel inverter I hv a problem about the connection. i got this two circuits, but the problem now is how to connect this two circuits? Becoz, PWM only generates square waveform, and now , which circuit can i use to connect from PWM to Multilevel inverter(H-bridge method...

I hope somebody can help me understand what is going wrong. I have a Gateway laptop with an ac power supply rated for up to 4.7 amps. I have an inverter rated for 4500 watts and 4.2 amps that I bought from Sam’s Club. It was made by Black and Decker. When I plug my laptop into the inverter I pop...

Using a 150w inverter to power the mac mini & LCD monitor in my truck camper. My Kill A Watt meter shows that the draw (on regular home power) is about 55-60 watts, or .05 KWH per hour. Can I assume that I could use this set-up for several hours, if need be, without danger of depleting my...

Hi all, Just joined and have a question I'm hoping someone can help me with. I'm putting a Chrysler 300 M electroluminescent gauge set in my 2000 Intrepid (backlit gauges). The problem is that I have to swap the faces onto the original cluster electrics in order for everything to work...

This is the specs of the inverter: Voltage In - 12VDC Voltage Out - 115VAC Continous POwer - 800W Peak - 1600W Out Frequency - 60hz Waveform - Modified Sine Wave No Load current - .75A Low Battery alarm and auto shutdown Overload and short circuit protection Input polarity reverse...

hello every one i just got a dc ac inverter 200w at 110v from black&decker company which my uncle sent me problem is all appliances here are rated at 220v-230v so i went to look for the transformer that could convert 110v to 220v but all the shop keepers tell me that the only transformer...

How are you EEs. I would like to use my 12V car battery as backup power for a 72W television so that I can watch every minute of 2006 soccer world cup action (in case of Electricity company power cuts). After some searches I found this inverter http://www.uoguelph.ca/~antoon/circ/555dcac.html...

hello everyone i need a circuit diagram or printed circuit board for a dc to ac inverter that will convert 12vdc to 220v ac @ 50 Hz. the circuit should be preferably simple and easy to make. not to forget cheap i don't want to buy one. i need the car cigarette lighter types that are small. i...

We have an inverter driven 3kw motor at work that is the main drive for a piece of kit we have, it drives via a 300-1 or so gear box, you can turn the whole thing with one finger via the fan on the motor, the problem is the 3ph cable to the motor hardens an breaks down, it is the recomended...

This is a prelab i am working on: we have a 74HC04 inverter, whose pin 1 is connected to the DIP switch (switch connected to 5V source and ground), pin 2 is connected to 1) a load (R + LED) that connects back to the source 2) a load (R + LED) that is properly connected to the ground pin 7...

i have a 1.5 HP air compressor and a 400 W DC to AC inverter. i was wondering if i use this in my car what will happen. 1.5 HP is obviously close to 3 times more power than the inverter can supply. i would obviously keep my car running to keep the altnernator charging the battery. would the...
