💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Assuming the output is a square wave.

The inverter outputs a sine waveform (or a close approximation) to smoothly control motor speed and torque.

💡 Hint

Common Mistakes

Confusing voltage control with frequency control.

Pulse width modulation (PWM) is used to control the frequency of the motor, which adjusts its speed.
