Can a DC to AC Inverter Circuit Be Simulated Using Multisim Software?

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on simulating a SCR inverter circuit using Multisim software. The original poster encountered difficulties in achieving correct simulation results with the provided circuit link. Forum members emphasized the importance of safety when dealing with high voltage and suggested using a step-down transformer for lower voltage and frequency applications. A corrected link to the circuit was also shared for accurate reference.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) inverter circuits
  • Familiarity with Multisim software for circuit simulation
  • Knowledge of transformer operation, specifically step-down transformers

Hello,
I tried to build inverter circuit by using following link.

http://www.geocities.com/ CapeCanaveral/lab/5185/ circuit.html

(SCR inverter)

I tried to run this circuit in Multisim software but I did not get correct result. Please help me to simulate this circuit.

If you have any other circuit which is working better then I have then please suggest me.

Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the PF. Your link is broken -- here is a fixed version:

You're just going to simulate it, correct? You're not going to attempt to build a circuit that outputs a 300V, 400Hz waveform, right? Doesn't sound like a very safe project for you.
 
no i am not going to build this circuit with this big transformer. may be i am using step down transformer for low voltage and frequency.
 
Most likely this can only be answered by an "old timer". I am making measurements on an uA709 op amp (metal can). I would like to calculate the frequency rolloff curves (I can measure them). I assume the compensation is via the miller effect. To do the calculations I would need to know the gain of the transistors and the effective resistance seen at the compensation terminals, not including the values I put there. Anyone know those values?
