Abstract :
A simple static inverter circuit consisting of two tunnel diodes and a transformer wound on a square-loop magnetic core is described. This circuit provides a practical method for stepping up voltages of the order of 0.2 volt to practical values and is proposed for use with thermoelectric, thermionic, or fuel cell generators. The output is a very good a-c square wave
