What is DC-to-AC Inverter?
DC-to-AC Inverter is used to converts DC (Direct Current) from the battery to AC (Alternating Current) for the motor.
How It Works?
Step-1). The battery provides DC power to the inverter.
Step-2). The inverter utilizes electronic switches (IGBTs/MOSFETs).
Step-3). These switches generate pulses as they rapidly flip on and off.
Step-4). Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) transforms these pulses into an alternating current waveform (AC).
Step-5). The motor receives the AC and begins rotating the wheels.
Step-6). This process occurs thousands of times per second and is so seamless that we only experience immediate acceleration.
Why DC to AC Conversion is Important?
DC to AC Conversion controls speed (by altering AC frequency)
DC to AC Conversion controls torque (by changing voltage)
DC to AC Conversion controls direction (by reversing phase sequence)
DC to AC Conversion allows for regeneration (AC → DC while braking)
DC to AC Conversion increases efficiency by up to 95-98%.
