Is Pulse Width Modulation the Key to Understanding Inverters?

[NeoMatrix1968]

How did you find PF?

Searching for whether Tesla Vehicles used a sine wave or square wave to power their motors.

I've always been a tenacious seeker of truth. I don't purport to be an expert in any field, and I'm thankful for the people who are. Reading papers written in different fields helps me construct my view of how the world/universe works. I offer my input where I feel it may help.

Welcome to PF!

I would think the answer to your title question (if you didn't already get it) is that they use pulse width modulated DC (square waves that simulate sine waves) like most if not all inverters. But if there's more to discuss it should go in the electrical engineering forum...
