Abstract
A DC to AC inverter that includes a first capacitor (11) and a first inductor (13) connected in series between a positive voltage supply node and a central node; a first active switch switching (15) connected across the first capacitor and driven with a first periodic drive signal of a predetermined frequency; a second capacitor (21) and a second inductor (23) connected in series between a negative voltage supply node and the central node; a second active switch (25) connected across the second capacitor and being driven with a second periodic signal of said predetermined frequency and being out of phase by 180 degrees relative to the first periodic drive signal; a bandpass filter (31, 33) connected between the central node and an output node; and a load (47) connected between the output node and ground.
