In this video I will tell you the basics about SPWM and show you how we can use it to create a pure sine wave. Afterwards we will have a closer look at the EGS002 which is a cheap SPWM driver board from China. I will create a DIY pure sine wave inverter with it and show you why it is not really a decent alternative to commercial inverters.

    The amount effort you put into this video is astonishing, it makes me guilty for not supporting you other than watching. Sourcing the parts on your own must be such a real pain in the ass to do, and the fact you said _"it doesn't blow up"_ multiple times clearly tell us you must be very happy with your hard work! And oh, the principles of sPWM looks real similar to class D amplifier, only with some feedback inputs. Now I remember my silly idea years ago, using audio amplifier with step up transformer to make a sine wave inverter because back then, sine wave inverter was so expensive, it's literally unaffordable but today's sine wave inverter are getting cheaper and more affordable, there's no point in making your own with the risk it poses. Seriously, just get yourself a proper one.

    I remember seeing a 3 phase 400Hz 220V power supply built using H&H audio amplifiers in a aircraft instrument factory during the 1980's. It was a very fine piece of equipment and gave a very impressive performance. The disadvantages were that its efficiency was abysmal and it was not very portable. It was mounted in its own 19" rack with heavy duty castors.

    Back in 2006, I built my own 150 watts pure sine wave inverter using the PWM method. Instead of using a micro controller, U sed a simple comparator which compared a 6 KHz triangle wave with a 60 Hz sine wave generated by a wave shaper (6 diodes and 2 resistors). I have to say I was amazed by the result.

You used the same compoments for the version with the iron core. The IRF840 are high voltage, low current mosfets with a BIG RDSon so thats why you had so much idle consumption. Try using the IRF3205 like they said in the datasheet with 8mOhm RDSon and bigger current, even in parallel! Also the transformer should be 8V to 220V and not 12-220 :D

    20W is actually quite good, the multi-thousand dollar pure sine wave off-grid inverters often have standby losses of 30-40W continuous. The main reason being transformer losses and running the control circuits. I would be very interested in this module for a 48V or higher input application, really just a question of the right MOSFETs and filter design at that point.

I think that this can be used to create a single phase VFD (230V 50Hz in) that should be able to be used with single phase induction motors to enable speed control.

    Most inverters step low voltage up to 400V then use full MOSFET bridge to create 240VAC from that 400V. This improves the efficiency and size as transformers work at 20kHz to generate 400V and conversion to 240VAC only needs simple filtering. Example: I have a 3000W Chinese sine wave inverter which has a no load power of around 10W

    Hi Scott Thanks for a great video....... I'm using the EGS002 and it's working fine..... IF you build your own board. But the most expensive part is the toroid (transformer). A bigger toroid=more power. Btw, try to use as high voltage as possible. Then you decrease the amps, because the AMPS is the backside of low voltage. No (normal) wire can hold 100A continuously at 12volt, but just by increase the voltage to 24volt, the amps will decrease by 2x. And at 48volts you have "only" 25amps running in the cable to the battery. Thats why the Chinese circuit shows 400V DC. Because they can keep the cost down on wires and transformers aso.

    The "ASIC" could well be a microcontroller with the firmware in ROM. Definitely the ATMEGA in Arduino will do the job as well. In fact it does nothing else than the table generation you tried yourself, but instead of directly feeding to the counter, these numbers get multiplied by an amplitude variable. This variable comes from sampling the output voltage at the moment when it is supposed to be at its peak, comparing it with the desired peak value and then adjusting the amplitude variable till the measured voltage matches the target. The ADC is scheduled so at most times it measures the current, once the 20ms cycle it replaces one sample by voltage measurement and few times per second by the thermistor measurement. What makes me to think it is actually a generic microcontroller with custom firmware and not a true ASIC is how much of auxiliary analog circuit it needs around (not talking about the MOSFET predrivers, but really about signal processing within 5V rails), which could way easier be integrated onto the ASIC chip, so saved the BOM cost if it were truly designed as an ASIC. But all the circuit around really suggest there was no dedicated IC design involved, only programming of an existing micro. Which makes perfect sense, as designing an IC is VERY expensive and you have to sell millions of them to get that money back on savings compare to using some standard MCU. Don't think there are that much inverters sold to justify a fully custom IC for that...

You need to finish this up,,, try heatsinking the FETs and fan. We know resistance changes as temperature goes up and so do the electrical engineers.

    Great video. I think it's worth pursuing this project further , if your comfortable working with mains voltages :0) These things are particularly dangerous as there is very little protection for you on the output. No earth leakage is going to trip if you accidentally tough the output L and N. That can ruin your day... You can move your LC filter to the output of the transformer. That way is does not have to handle the high currents you will see on the primary. The large transformer inductance will also naturally act as a filter to the high frequency pwm waveform. The H-bridge circuit can also only generate a "PEAK" voltage equal to the supply voltage , so a 220/12V transformer will only be able to deliver just over 150Vrms. I think 1000W is a bit ambitious for a 12V system. Do-able , but your primary currents are going to be very high. You would be better off at 24 or 48V.

    Well the problem with the wave isn't because of the low current signal. It's because of the nonlinear characteristics of the inductor, the transformer, and the load. So, for example, in an exceptionally simple case, a rectifier draws more current when it gets to the peak of the sine wave, which brings the voltage down (mainly due to resistance upstream in the power path, like the inductor and the mosfets) only at the peak and gets us that sine with the flat bit at the top. I actually really like your thinking there, though. Largely because I thought of a similar thing a while ago. There do exist rotary converters, which is basically just either a DC motor spinning a single-phase generator, or a single phase motor spinning a 3-phase generator. The problem with these is that they're big, heavy, loud, but most importantly, they constantly consume current even at no load. They're good for some uses, like if you need 3 phase power when you only have single phase, and you only run it when you're running a big tool or something so you don't care about its inefficiency because it's not running for very long. But inverters are much better for general purpose use, which is why they get used so much. I believe they're also more efficient even at full load. You get a lot of eddy current losses in the big steel plates you need for a mains frequency transformer/motor. Inverters step up voltage at much higher frequencies (10s-100s of kHz), which means a much smaller transformer -> less steel -> less eddy current losses -> more efficiency. The trick to making a good sine wave with the inverter is all in the filtering. Picking the right combination of inductors and capacitors to balance the cutoff & resonance, good high frequency filtering while not suppressing the fundamental frequency that you want to keep, an also keeping component cost and size in mind. High current, high inductance, low frequency inductors get real big real fast. And since they use thick copper wires, they get expensive real fast too. And you can't use the advantage of the high frequency switching needing a smaller core like we did with the transformer because mains needs to be low frequency. This, by the way, is why cheaper inverters have more THD. They use cheaper components that don't filter as well (and probably spent less R&D money as well) so you get more harmonics. I'd say likely the most expensive parts of any inverter are the filter components.

    The problem with your inverter is that if you use 12V to 230V transformer, the peak voltages it can produce are only 230Vpk, while mains peak voltage is 325V. And if we divide 230 by 1.414 (square root of 2), it is around 162V as your oscilloscope showed. So if you wanted 230Vrms, you would have to use around 17V

    That would really help, here is the chinese datasheet. datasheetspdf.com/pdf-file/968003/EGmicro/EGP1000W/1 Using Google, it suggest the board can either be used with a high voltage input or with a low voltage and a transformer. In the latter case, I thought you need a small second transformer on the output side to provide an isolated low voltage voltage to the control board but I couldnt see that in the video......

    That is the cheap way...that also blows up easily. Seriously, even the expensive ones, like Sinergex keep blowing up. I have repaired many. A full bridge + 50Hz transformer can make a robust inverter with nice output. One thing though, the 1000W board has a input current monitoring circuit that causes a rather high voltage drop, this is not practical with e.g. 12V input.

    ​ @GreatScott! There are three filter electrolytic capacitors (C1, C2, C3) and two decoupling capacitors (C14, C15) on the on-board power supply bus. The withstand voltage of the capacitor should be selected according to the power supply voltage. If working in high frequency mode and the power supply bus voltage is (330V~400V), select 450V withstand voltage. If working in industrial frequency mode and the power supply bus voltage is 48V, the capacitor withstand voltage should be 63V. The electrolytic capacitor capacity is selected according to the actual system power. Generally, the high frequency mode should be greater than 47uF, and the power frequency mode should be greater than 470uF. The decoupling capacitor is generally 0.1uF CBB capacitor, and the withstand voltage must be greater than the power supply bus voltage. If the withstand voltage of the capacitor is less than the bus voltage of the power supply, the capacitor may explode!

This negates the whole problem of having stupid lossy transformers and difficult feedback loops. It has it's own disadvantages, like high frequency, high voltage switching and a high voltage DC supply (more dangerous than ac) but it was hella efficient and didn't care about load attached
