Abstract

A PWM inverter including a saturable core and a main circuit comprising a series circuit of a main winding and a resistor in which switching means applies a DC voltage across the main circuit by time ratio control with the polarity inverted alternately, and the on-off control of the switching means is accomplished by using a saturable transformer with a saturable core.
