Abstract
An inverter is proposed for providing an inverter output signal scalable in frequency. The inverter has a controller for controlling frequency of the inverter output signal according to a predefinable value. In order to generate a signal having a frequency value prescribed for the inverter output signal, the controller initiates a time delay of signals and superimposes the signals onto the signal having the frequency value prescribed for the inverter output signal. A low-complexity inverter concept for high voltages or high power is thus provided.
