  2. AC-to-AC converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AC-to-AC_converter

    Fig 2: Topology of (regenerative) voltage-source inverter AC/DC-AC converter [3] Fig 3: Topology of current-source inverter AC/DC-AC converter [4] [5] There are two types of converters with DC link: Voltage-source inverter (VSI) converters (Fig. 2): In VSI converters, the rectifier consists of a diode-bridge and the DC link consists of a shunt ...

  3. Rotary converter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_converter

    1909 500 kW Westinghouse rotary converter. A rotary converter is a type of electrical machine which acts as a mechanical rectifier, inverter or frequency converter.. Rotary converters were used to convert alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC), or DC to AC power, before the advent of chemical or solid state power rectification and inverting.

  4. Power inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_inverter

    A power inverter, inverter, or invertor is a power electronic device or circuitry that changes direct current (DC) to alternating current (AC). [1] The resulting AC frequency obtained depends on the particular device employed. Inverters do the opposite of rectifiers which were originally large electromechanical devices converting AC to DC. [2]

  5. Power optimizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Power_optimizer

    A power optimizer is a DC to DC converter technology developed to maximize the energy harvest from solar photovoltaic or wind turbine systems. They do this by individually tuning the performance of the panel or wind turbine through maximum power point tracking, and optionally tuning the output to match the performance of the string inverter (DC to AC inverter).

  6. Inverter-based resource - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter-based_resource

    An inverter-based resource (IBR) is a source of electricity that is asynchronously connected to the electrical grid via an electronic power converter ("inverter"). The devices in this category, also known as converter interfaced generation ( CIG ), include the variable renewable energy generators (wind, solar) and battery storage power stations ...

  7. Inverter (logic gate) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverter_(logic_gate)

    The hex inverter is an integrated circuit that contains six inverters. For example, the 7404 TTL chip which has 14 pins and the 4049 CMOS chip which has 16 pins, 2 of which are used for power/referencing, and 12 of which are used by the inputs and outputs of the six inverters (the 4049 has 2 pins with no connection).

  8. Z-source inverter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Z-source_inverter

    Three-phase inverter: This type of inverter consists of three legs or poles or four legs (three legs for phases and one for neutral). Inverters are also classified based on the type of input source as follows: Voltage-source inverter (VSI): In this type of inverter, a constant voltage source acts as input to the inverter bridge.

  9. Register-transfer level - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Register-transfer_level

    For example, a very simple synchronous circuit is shown in the figure. The inverter is connected from the output, Q, of a register to the register's input, D, to create a circuit that changes its state on each rising edge of the clock, clk. In this circuit, the combinational logic consists of the inverter.
