    In this video, we'll be discussing how to convert DC to AC. We'll be using a 3D animation to illustrate the concepts.
    If you're ever in a situation where you need to convert DC to AC, then this video is for you! By the end of this video, you'll be able to understand how to rectify DC, and use this knowledge to solve practical problems. So make sure to watch it!
    There are two forms of electricity - alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC).
    DC is a linear type of electrical current - it moves in a straight line/flows in one direction. This current moves from the positive pole to the negative pole, while electrons produce electricity while moving from negative to positive.
    For DC, the positive and negative poles always remain the same.
    AC is a current that constantly changes its flow between positive and negative terminals. This means that electrons also change their flow, following the negative to positive end as the polarity changes.
    The speed at which AC changes polarity and completes several cycles in one second is called frequency, and it is measured in Hertz (Hz).
    the conversion of DC voltage to AC voltage is a common problem. In any circuit, we can observe that if we design a circuit that takes the AC input and gives DC output. But, if we want to change the circuit from DC to AC, a DC to AC converter circuit is used. The inverter (converter) is frequently required in the circuits like where DC to AC conversion is not possible. So, an inverter circuit is employed for converting the DC to AC converter.
    PS : Dear friends, the ammeter connection shown in this video is totally misleading. You should connect an ammeter in series manner with the circuit, I was completely messed that up. But it will not affect the core idea of how to convert DC to AC. Ill upload the corrected videos ASAP.

      Next to that you cant convert dc to ac in the first place.. since ac is a pure sinus.. You can generate a pulsing artificial sinus tough.. You do convert ac to dc yes.
      Next to that, that modified sine wave was btw the simplest of its form, and is more an example of a pwm signal.. A good ac generation consist of multiple square-waves where each one follows the actual sinus, so its not just two pulses of dc like you described anyway it consist of a few dozen of those all having a small intervall, having all their own amplitude related to the momentary voltage.

    Been studying electronics for about a decade on and off. The good thing is, things haven't changed much. Sure, we have better memory and faster more complex chips. but the gist of it hasn't changed in hundreds of yrs. I still find myself exploring diode functions, resistor functions, ect ect. Well made video. Thx.

  • @berryj.greene7090
    @berryj.greene7090 9 месяцев назад

    Well that Ammeter really ought to be a voltmeter. The snag is that we want to use the terms "Alternating" and "Direct" Current. It always seems worth the while to show the origin of this with a magnet spinning near a coil. The speed of the motion gives the frequency. Its the voltage output polarity and extent of it during the cycle that is so informative. So is the notion that without the changes it won't work! Now with that done we can move on to describe that in basic circuits - say lamps and heaters - it won't matter. Then we have the spin off that is induction which allows us to step the voltage up or down (transform) and is is so useful. NOW we can embrace conversion from ac to DC and vice-versa.

    Long AC power lines have more resistance (c.f. skin effect) but also have impedance and radiate energy (an effective antenna for 60Hz is 750 miles. The Pacific Intertie is a 500,000 volt DC line from Bonneville Dam in Washington carrying 1500 Megawatts to Los Angeles. The conversion to AC was originally using raquetball court sized Mercury Thyratrons and a field of inductors and capacitors.

    The dead time (Modified square wave) is introduced not only for a better approximation of the Sine wave, but also for the protection of the transistors as they could short out when toggled.

    Awesome video. You explained the conventional and present means to describe current flow, current flow in general, and the different kinds of AC wave forms. These topics are rarely covered in these kinds of discussions, well done. I would like to have seen how capacitors are used to create the offset since wave, I suspect that the result is truer to sinusoidal waves than shown.

  • @DanSchallerforPOTUS
    @DanSchallerforPOTUS Год назад

    I had never been instructed that current flow from DC to AC anywhere other than in a cell or battery. - When connect to an external source, the flow is from the negative terminal to the positive terminal (with the positive terminal being depicted by a short line and the negative terminal depicted by a long line). Fyi the AAA, AA, C, & D are dry cells when by themselves and are only considered a battery when used in conjunction with another cell.

  • @pomme4682
    @pomme4682 Год назад +8

    The conventional direction of electric current was originally taken to be from the positive pole to the negative pole of a battery through the external circuit. This system is still used, and causes no problems, even though we now know the electric current is caused by electrons drifting from the negative to the positive pole. Incidentally the speed of the electrons is so slow that, for example, a flashlight battery will probably run down before an electron has gone around the circuit even once.

      A Lumped Element Model is used to describe circuit schematics and electron "flow"
      The truth is, it's the movement of the EM fields that brings the fun to the party.....but parsing that out each time troubleshooting takes place would mean nothing would get done.
      "Electron flow" is a lumped element type of shorthand.

How we can control the current flow between collector and emitter by applying voltage or pulse to the base? I am very interested at knowledgeable video with good explanation so I am looking for to you kind, fast and fruitful response.

    • @Profmad
      @Profmad  Год назад +1

      1. Since we are working with high power applications, normally we use IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor)s for switching purpose. IGBT's applied VGE (gate-emitter voltage) should be at least 14 V (preferably 15 V). Its better to check the data sheet of the component. .
      2. I have made another video to explain how does the transistor work.
