  • Abstract
    The delta inverter is a novel circuit which uses only three power transistors to produce a three-phase supply. Requiring approximately half the components of a conventional bridge inverter it therefore has potential cost and reliability advantages. The basic operating principles of the delta inverter are explained, using passive resistive and inductive loads. Some aspects of its performance are compared with a bridge inverter, and preliminary results with an induction motor are presented.
