Convert Alternating DC to AC
Convert Alternating DC to AC
(OP)
Hey everyone, I have a quick question.
I have an un-rectified alternating DC signal, that I'd like to convert to true AC.
Does anyone have any information on going about this process?
Currently, I alternate between +2 and 0, and I'd like to alternate between +1 and -1 (see attachment)
Any info would be fantastic.

In practice, we will be working with ~12 to 20 volts, and around 5 to 10 amps...

It would be very good if posters included the specs from the beginning. Specs and use. Not easy to answer a question without that basic information.

Half full - Half empty? I don't mind. It's what in it that counts.
RE: Convert Alternating DC to AC
The DC power supply needs current output rating of at least 10A and voltage output rated for cancelling the maximum DC offset you encounter.
Another solution may be to remove the DC component at the source, perhaps the generator's AC output is being referenced to positive leg of battery or other DC supply instead of 0V?
Good Luck,

Is this "generator" capable of sourcing the 5A to 10A the load requires? If so, the best bet would be to re-configure it to provide the AC output directly.
When you ask a vague question you get vague answers.
Funny how not only the current was missing from the question but now the voltage requirements have changed as well.
