S4w's Wind Generator Notes

The next section that I am going to describe is the boost converter part. This section will take power from a DC voltage source (batteries) and step it up to the required voltage by the inverter.

First lets discuss how inductive boost converters work. In the schematics shown the most basic boost converter uses a switch, a diode, an inductor and an output capacitor.

NOTE: This picture have been released to the public domain by the author and it was modified by me.

The goal of this series of pages is to explain and ultimately build a high efficiency pure sine wave inverter (DC to AC converter) from scratch. I have been working on this project for about 6 months and so far the inverter is basically working.

Ive decided to do a little face lift to this web page. I hope that everyone likes the new appearance. Take the poll feature to your advantage and please let me know what would you like to see next in this website.
