AC vs DC DC, or direct current means the electrical current is flowing in only one direction in a circuit. Batteries are a good source of direct current (DC). AC, or alternating current means the electrical current is alternating directions in a repetitive pattern. AC is created by generators in power plants, and other sources.
3
DC and AC waveform Time Time
Can be triangular wave, square wave or any symmetrical waveform
4
Switches to convert DC to AC??
