Abstract

A control for an inverter having a switch which is operated in accordance with a PWM waveform having spaced rising and falling edges includes circuitry which detects the magnitude and polarity of a DC component in the AC output power produced by the inverter and an adder/subtractor which adjusts at least one of a rising and falling edge of the waveform to reduce the magnitude of the DC component.
