EGS002 SINE WAVE INVERTER CIRCUIT

This is a simple sine wave inverter circuit without programming.
Pure sine wave inverter circuit with no center tap design has become simple by using EGS002 Sinusoidal Inverter Driver Card. This post will give explain how to make a pure sine inverter at home without any programming. Let me start this tutorial by first introducing you to EGS002 DRIVER BOARD.



EGS002 DRIVER BOARD/CARD

Build your own MPPT read here
EGS002 is an already made 17pins plug and play driver board specific for single phase sinusoidal inverter. It uses ASIC EG8010 as control chip and IR2110S as driver chip. The driver board integrates functions of voltage, current and temperature protection, LED warning indication and fan control. Jumper configures 50/60Hz AC output, soft start mode and dead time.

The driver board has an LCD monitor port. A connected LCD monitor will display Output voltage, current, system temperature and Output frequency. The board will still work even when no display is connected.

The board can be used for two stage AC converter (DC-DC-AC) or DC-AC single stage low power frequency transformer systems. In this tutorial, we are going to limit ourselves to Low frequency transformer systems. That is no center tap transformer inverter.

Lets now take a look at our EGS002 card and its pins. You can download the pdf. datasheet of the card by clicking here




EGS002 DISPLAY CONNECTION




The board has several functions which the user can activate or select by using
jumper or soldering the points together. The image below provides the jumper setting if the default is not wanted.




SINE WAVE INVERTER MOSFET BRIDGE BOARD

Now that you have fair idea of the sine inverter card, plug the card into the circuit below. the below circuit will work without any modification when using 12V or 24V battery system. To use 48V or higher Dc voltage designs, you have to step down the higher DC voltage to 12V using a buck converter or an appropriate Step down IC and later use 7805 to get your 5V.

Please note that LM7805 and LM7812 will burn when the input is more than 30V DC.

With this circuit, you only fix your card pins to the corresponding circuit pins. Output regulation is achieved by adjusting the 10K variable resistor. U6 is 10K NTC for temperature sensing and fan regulation. The 220V ac output of this power inverter is protected from power surge using Power NTC 10ohms.

The egs002 card can be used for all voltage systems.

But 24 and 48V systems will need a voltage conveter.

The feedback can also be achieved by using a separate 12V transformer instead of one transformer with a separate winding.

 

     WATTAGE


The wattage of the inverter depends on the number of mosfets you will connect in parallel. Add more mosfets in parallel for high output power. Every 4 Mosfets will switch 250W in 12V system, 500W in 24V system and 1000w in 48V system. I hope you can make your calculation from it as to how many Fets to connect in parallel to get a certain wattage.


WHERE TO BUY THE SINE WAVE INVERTER DRIVER CARD

You can buy it on ebay or Ali express at 6 to 18 dollars with delivery time up to 40 working days.

You can also buy the BRIDGE BOARD from me by stating the wattage

BATTERY PROTECTION AND LOW BATTERY ALARM


The inverter battery is very expensive and must be protected to prolong its life. when the battery is drained too low, the battery expected life will be shortened. connect the positive lines of my battery protection circuit to J1 and negative to the ground. Battery protection circuit can be seen by clicking this link



OVERLOAD PROTECTION FOR THE SINE WAVE INVERTER CARD


Overload protection protects the inverter from failing when the output is shorted or load exceeds maximum load. The sine wave driver board has an inbuilt current sense which shuts down the inverter when max current is exceeded. Pin 1 of the card is dedicated to this function. The current sense uses a shunt resistor. Shunt value is selected such that at maximum current, The voltage drop will be 0.5V. This prompts the system that there is an overload so that the system turns off until overload cause is removed.

The formulae for calculating the shunt resistance are:

1. R= 0.6 ( V/ I max) where V=0.5, I=Max DC switching current. and R = Shunt value.

  1. Hi, you haven't specified the mosfet number. IRFZ44N or IRF3205N? Is the board configured as unipolar or bipolar?

    1. Hi, Any N-Chanel mosfet will work.
      But always make sure that the maximum voltage of your mosfet is at least twice your system voltage.
      eg. You can use 3205 or Irfz44 for 12V systems and 24V systems.....But cannot be used for 48V systems since their max voltage is 55V

  2. I have started liking this Board especially when one considers the simplicity and the low cost of acquisition. I have decided to convert all my single stage modified UPS/inverters to pure sine-wave ones using your circuit schema. How does it fare in terms efficiency?

  6. Pls, my questions go this way.
    1) is the value of the 10k BTC critical?

    2)now, if you want to use a single transformer for both the inverting and charging from the mains, what modifications are needed in your circuit?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. 1. The 10k is not critical depending on how hot you want your sysyem to be before fan starts.

      2. You need high skills in this very circuit because the card doesnt have charging code.
      You can however acheive that using a relay to disconnect the gate drive and switching the the low side mosfets at 20kz-27kz.with an external driver when the transformer is connected to mains

  7. Hi!
    Can you tell me about power transformer used in this circuit? For 12 volts battery, how must be the transformer (Primary and secondary)?

    Thanks so much!

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. The secondary must 6V (0-6v) whiles the primary must be a ratio of your secondary turns which can give 220v or 110v depending on where you are.

  8. Sir but in the above diagram u have mentioned, to use transformer accoring to the battery , but now u r saying to use (6-0) v why?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. That was a mistake...In pure sinewave systems, you have to use transformers which are half of your battery voltage.
      Example: 48v (24V to 26V transformer)
      24V (use 12V to 14V transformer)
      12v (use 6V to 7v transformer)

    2. Sir what is u7 is this non polarised capacitors

    3. Yes U7 has no polarity

    1. Yes you can. But in that case you have to use high frequency inverter topology and use an LC filter to block the high frequency harmonics to get only 50Hz at the output.

  21. can i use multiple egs002 inverter circuit and instead of using a stepup transformer , i do series connection of multiple same circuit to get HV AC output?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. No please. You can rather use high frequency inverter topology to achieve what you are talking about.

      In high frequency inverter systems,
      1. You boost your input dc voltage to high dc voltage (320V-400V dc).
      2. You can use SG3525N for the boost converter stage.
      3. Use the egs002 card at the second stage to convert the 320V - 400V high voltage DC to 220V AC.

  23. I have victron inverter 24v 5000w with two different transformer but the driver board is faulty Can I use egs002 to convert convert

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Yes you can. But you will have to do alot of work before it can become successful.
      1. You must get 12V and 5V from the power supply board in the Victron. The power supply board is at the front part located after the two cooling fans.

      2. You must match the bridge drive signals from the EGS to the low, float and high h bridge circuit/ boards in the victron.
      The victron has two mosfet bridge boards connected in parallel but shares the same heat sinks.

      3. Provide feedback from the output of the transformer (the two are connected in parallel) to the EGS.
      4. Provide the NTC for temperature sensing.
      5. Received current feed back from the victron current sensor. Add a resistor across the output of the CT if the voltage Received is very high.

      If you can do all these....then success is high.

  24. Hello,
    Very nice article. So i built the circuit, used a 6.5V UPS transformer but the issue is that with load of more than 100w, voltage drops from 220v to 184v. Any idea where to look at ? thanks.
