Abstract

Based on the active circuit of a 50Hz astable multivibrator, a base driven static inverter has been designed, constructed and tested. Design is able to convert small amounts of dc current to their amplified ac equivalents. A conversion of 12V dc input to the usual domestic range of 220-240V ac is also derivable from the inverter. Therefore this design is recommended for use in mounting of photovoltaic (PV) generators in rural areas.

Keywords: inverter, dc-current, ac-current, photovoltaic generator
