Inverter Circuit
Inverter Circuit
Here the simple and reliable inverter circuit designed with Arduino board, and we can
program Arduino to obtain stepped AC output, modified sinewave AC output or Pure
sinewave output, and also we can program Arduino board to bring different range of
frequency output.
Circuit Diagram
This inverter circuit have three stages and a 12V 5.0Ah SLA battery as a DC bias, to show
this circuit simple and neat I have removed battery charger circuit.
The first stage of this circuit is Arduino Micro controller board and it is programmed to give
SPWM (Sinusoidal Pulse Width Modulation) or you can modify the code to produce different
output from Arduino pins.
Second stage is switching and driver stage, output pulse from the Arduinio digital pins are fed
into switching transistor SL100 npn and then power mosfet IRF540.
Third stage is a output stage which is constructed by using center tapped transformer (230
VAC primary / 12-0-12 VAC secondary) and it is connected reversely with driver circuit that
is secondary stage (12-0-12 VAC) is connected to the power mosfet and primary side of
transformer let to give output supply.
When the battery connected with this circuit voltage regulator 7812 powers up the Arduino
board and it starts producing output pulses depends on sketch, the pulses are drives the
transistor SL100 and power mosfet IRF540 and transformer secondary winding connected
with the mosfet get discrete energy and mutually induce the large number of primary
winding, as we know due to large numbers of winding and changing magnetic field, it
produce high voltage AC output.
