In this video, we'll be discussing how to convert DC to AC. We'll be using a 3D animation to illustrate the concepts.

If you're ever in a situation where you need to convert DC to AC, then this video is for you! By the end of this video, you'll be able to understand how to rectify DC, and use this knowledge to solve practical problems. So make sure to watch it!

There are two forms of electricity – alternating current (AC) and direct current (DC).
DC is a linear type of electrical current – it moves in a straight line/flows in one direction. This current moves from the positive pole to the negative pole, while electrons produce electricity while moving from negative to positive.
For DC, the positive and negative poles always remain the same.
AC is a current that constantly changes its flow between positive and negative terminals. This means that electrons also change their flow, following the negative to positive end as the polarity changes.

The speed at which AC changes polarity and completes several cycles in one second is called frequency, and it is measured in Hertz (Hz).

the conversion of DC voltage to AC voltage is a common problem. In any circuit, we can observe that if we design a circuit that takes the AC input and gives DC output. But, if we want to change the circuit from DC to AC, a DC to AC converter circuit is used. The inverter (converter) is frequently required in the circuits like where DC to AC conversion is not possible. So, an inverter circuit is employed for converting the DC to AC converter.

PS : Dear friends, the ammeter connection shown in this video is totally misleading. You should connect an ammeter in series manner with the circuit, I was completely messed that up. But it will not affect the core idea of how to convert DC to AC. Ill upload the corrected videos ASAP.

Been studying electronics for about a decade on and off. The good thing is, things haven't changed much. Sure, we have better memory and faster more complex chips. but the gist of it hasn't changed in hundreds of yrs. I still find myself exploring diode functions, resistor functions, ect ect. Well made video. Thx.

We need more people like this. This is a helpful instruction. I am 12 and my father is an electric engineerer and we are both very intimated.

If you wanted to have a better sin wave you could use capacitors or inductors that will smooth the wave form to more closely match those of a sin wave

[rahulmenon]

Thank You! You have no idea how much that helped.

Hello!
Ampere meters are NEVER connected in parallel with the consumer!
(time: 1:44 --> )
You can draw the same diagram by measuring the tension :)

Wow. Great explanation. It clarified how few electronic devices work.

Long AC power lines have more resistance (c.f. skin effect) but also have impedance and radiate energy (an effective antenna for 60Hz is 750 miles. The Pacific Intertie is a 500, 000 volt DC line from Bonneville Dam in Washington carrying 1500 Megawatts to Los Angeles. The conversion to AC was originally using raquetball court sized Mercury Thyratrons and a field of inductors and capacitors.

Well that Ammeter really ought to be a voltmeter. The snag is that we want to use the terms "Alternating" and "Direct" Current. It always seems worth the while to show the origin of this with a magnet spinning near a coil. The speed of the motion gives the frequency. Its the voltage output polarity and extent of it during the cycle that is so informative. So is the notion that without the changes it won't work! Now with that done we can move on to describe that in basic circuits - say lamps and heaters - it won't matter. Then we have the spin off that is induction which allows us to step the voltage up or down (transform) and is is so useful. NOW we can embrace conversion from ac to DC and vice-versa.

Great video ! Well explained, easy to understand... Very good job. I have subscribed to your channel.

Sir...your lectures are awesome 👍🤩 Mind-blowing...need more videos about electronic and electronics...I am a EEE student

The dead time (Modified square wave) is introduced not only for a better approximation of the Sine wave, but also for the protection of the transistors as they could short out when toggled.
Very nice video tutorial. 👍

Nice presentation sir. Looking forward to enjoying upcoming videos.

Should the Amplitude not be ~170V? (120V * √2) as far as I know they have 120V RMS in america.

Dear Prof
What a wonderful day that I came across your loved and simplified Electronic Lessons..! I even gained beautiful English Lessons from
the way you spoke.I have had difficulties in getting the meaning of the AC Trigonometric function for over 11 years. I am now able to
understand the ""down flow of waves "" mean to be the Negative Pol.Thank very much: Sir.

[bisdakmillennial]

Your videos make our life easier. Thanks.

[jamesslick]

I was taught in elementary school (1970s) that current flowed from negative to positive. "Conventional" flow in drawings always drove me nuts, but we are stuck with it. LOL.

Crazy how that impatient freestyle go so hard!! Simple beat, nothing extraordinary🤷🏻‍♂️ it’s DRAKEOS, word Play so dangerous 🤟🏼✊🏼
