Inverter theory
Posted: Sun Oct 27, 2013 7:02 am
Hi everybody.
So at the moment I am trying to make sense of power inverter theory, and would be very grateful for some clarification, or a link to somewhere where I can study the theory, since my google searches have been fruitless.
I want to build my own power supply, and my thought process behind this is to take (UK) mains, rectify it, invert it back to AC at a minimum of 10kHz, and then use ferrite transformers to get a higher voltage, and then if needed to use a CW multiplier. However the problem I am having is working out how to increase the frequency. I have found a circuit (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Fluor ... verter.png) which increases the frequency, but I do not know by how much, or how to work it out. I tried building this circuit in Yenka, but that didn't quite work out, though I did observe a large increase in frequency.
Thanks for any replies
