Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

What is the role of an inverter in power electronics?
  • Step 1: Understand that electricity can come in two forms: direct current (DC) and alternating current (AC).
  • Step 2: Know that direct current (DC) flows in one direction, while alternating current (AC) changes direction periodically.
  • Step 3: Learn that an inverter is a device that changes DC into AC.
  • Step 4: Realize that this conversion is important because many appliances and devices use AC power to operate.
  • Step 5: Remember that inverters are commonly used in solar power systems, battery systems, and various electronic devices.
