How does an inverter perform Pulse Width Modulation (PMW)?
The core concept of PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) is to control the average output voltage by changing the pulse width of the signal. Here are the detailed steps:
Reference Signal (Carrier Signal): PWM inverters typically use a fixed frequency triangular wave (or sawtooth wave) as a reference signal, known as the carrier signal.
Modulation Signal: The modulation signal is a varying sine wave that represents the desired output AC waveform. The amplitude of the modulation signal determines the magnitude of the output voltage, while its frequency determines the frequency of the output voltage.
Comparison: The modulation signal is compared with the carrier signal. When the instantaneous value of the modulation signal is greater than that of the carrier signal, a high-level output is produced; otherwise, a low-level output is produced.
Generation of PWM Waveform: Through the above comparison process, a series of rectangular waves with varying widths are generated. The width of these rectangular waves changes over time, simulating the shape of a sine wave.
Filtering: Finally, a filter is used to remove the high-frequency components from the PWM waveform, resulting in a smoother sine wave output.

The UK grid operator has further tightened certification requirements for inverters, raising the market entry threshold by mandating that grid-connection certificates must be of the COC (Certificate of Conformity) type.The company’s self-developed string inverter, featuring a high-safety design and grid-friendly performance, has successfully passed all required tests. The product fully complies with the technical requirements for four distinct grid-connection categories—Type A, Type B, Type C, a
How to Resolve the Islanding Lockout of Grid-Connected InvertersResolving the islanding lockout of a grid-connected inverter usually refers to situations where, despite the inverter appearing to have a normal connection to the grid, the system still fails to establish an effective connection with the grid. Below are general steps to address this issue: Check inverter settings: Verify the inverter’s configuration parameters to ensure they comply with local grid requirements and regulations, inclu
Common inverter faults mainly include overcurrent, short circuit, ground fault, overvoltage, undervoltage, phase loss, overheating, overload, CPU malfunction, and communication errors. Modern inverters are equipped with comprehensive self-diagnostic, protection, and alarm functions. When any of these faults occurs, the inverter will immediately trigger an alarm or shut down automatically for protection, displaying a fault code or fault type. In most cases, the fault cause can be quickly identifi
Overvoltage Fault Analysis in Inverter Voltage DetectionThe inverter is the core of modern electric drive systems, enabling precise motor speed control. To ensure safe and stable operation, it continuously monitors key parameters—voltage, current, temperature, and frequency. This article analyzes overvoltage faults in inverter voltage detection circuits.Inverter overvoltage refers to the DC bus voltage exceeding a safe threshold, risking component damage and triggering protective shutdown. Under
The primary distinctions between low-frequency inverters and high-frequency inverters lie in their operating frequencies, design structures, and performance characteristics in different application scenarios. Below are detailed explanations from several perspectives:Operating Frequency Low-Frequency Inverter: Operates at a lower frequency, typically around 50Hz or 60Hz. Because its frequency is close to that of utility power, it is suitable for applications requiring stable sine wave output. Hig
What Maintenance Does a Solar Micro-Inverter Need?A solar micro-inverter is used to convert the DC power generated by photovoltaic (PV) panels into AC power, with each panel typically equipped with its own micro-inverter. Compared to traditional string inverters, micro-inverters offer higher efficiency and better fault isolation. To ensure their long-term stable operation, regular maintenance is crucial. Below are the main maintenance tasks for solar micro-inverters:1. Cleaning and Inspection Cl
