| − | + | Converting DC into AC involves switching the supply (e.g. from a battery) on and off repeatedly at a fast rate. Devices which do this are referred to as "Choppers". Attaching a coil of some kind (inductor, transformer or similar) will induce a current in the opposite direction to the original when the switch is open. This page outlines two methods of chopping the current, one using an electromagnetic buzzer and the other using an SPDT relay. | |
