Hi,
I am new to circuits and I am working with converting 5V DC to 120 or 230 V AC for powering a motor. Following is the circuit that I am using: http://www.sentex.ca/~mec1995/circ/555dcac.html
And I am using a 6-0-6 AC to DC Transformer and connected the secondary coil to the circuit. The supply power is 5V DC and 500 milli amps and I am not getting any out from the transformer. I measured the AC voltage after the Inductor L1 which is 0V and also measured the AC voltage in 3rd pin of 555 timer and before the C4 capacitor which reads as 7 to 8 V AC.
Please can some one tell me whether I am providing less power to the circuit or is there something that I am doing wrong. The C4 capacitor is
2700uF 25V and the L1 is 1uH.
Thanks
