AC and DC power differ in direction, usage, and efficiency. Learn the basics of how alternating and direct current work and where each is used.

Enphase Microinverters convert solar power from DC to AC energy to power homes and charge vehicles, and it now has two new facilities in the U.S.

Understanding Concepts of AC and DC Current: find the topic and its importance and types. Download or read complete content here.

By manipulating the switching frequency and turns ratios of the transformer, the circuit can have an arbitrary output voltage. In this case, it is designed to take 220V AC and convert it to 8V DC.

Fuses protect against overcurrent events by melting their elements and opening the circuit. Fuses must be applied at or below their specified voltage rating, which differs between ac and dc current.
