1.3 Product overview
Basic information
The Digiwatts inverter is used to convert DC power generated by the PV arrays into
stable AC power for output to the utility grid.
The Digiwatts system is a
transformerless inverter and performs this conversion in a very efficient way, without
moving components, using only solid state power electronic devices.
It is a crucial
unit in the small-scale PV power system.
An example of basic PV power system components is shown in the Figure 1-1.
