Technical FAQs 4

What are the different types of sine wave inverters?

The square wave, modified sine wave, and quasi-sine wave all have a number of harmonics, which, as you know, are sine waves with frequencies that are odd multiples of the fundamental frequency and different amplitudes. Harmonics are especially troublesome in some applications, so high-quality sine wave inverters are the most widely used type.

How does a sine wave inverter work?

Other variations are possible. The sine wave inverter uses a low-power electronic signal generator to produce a 60 Hz reference sine wave and a 60 Hz square wave, synchronized with the sine wave. The reference sine wave goes to the PWM circuit along with a triangular wave that is used to sample the sine wave values to produce a PWM control output.

What is the difference between a modified sine wave and a quasi-sine wave?

The result is a reduced harmonic content that has less distortion than the modified sine wave. This waveform is sometimes referred to as a quasi-sine wave, although this term is also sometimes used to describe the two-level modified sine wave. Figure 6 Three-Level Modified Sine Wave Creating a Quasi–Sine Wave

What is a modified sine wave?

The output waveform of such inverter can be termed as quasi sine wave. The modified sine wave take a pause (set at zero volts) before changing the polarity (as shown in the image below). Fig. 1: Signal Diagram of Modified Sine Wave The output of such inverter can be used to drive low sensitive AC devices.
