TYPE 947D USED AS DC LINK IN LARGE INVERTER SYSTEMS
INVERTER TOPOLOGY
INVERTER APPLICATIONS INVERTERS CONVERT DC TO AC 10
DC FILTERING AT INPUT 60 Hz AC is rectified to DC with high ripple AC Most electronic applications do not perform well with high AC ripple. A filter, capacitor is placed between the rectifier and the load to smooth the voltage by filtering out much of the unwanted AC. 11
INVERTER APPLICATIONS Inverter switching produces ripple voltage across the capacitors resulting in high ripple current. Total ripple current is from rectification and switching Ripple current heats the capacitor (blue peaks below) Higher temperature shortens capacitor life 12
