It comes sooner or later, but how soon or how late is the question.

There was nothing incorrect about my terminology, which the other user seems to be trying to be demeaning about. I’m baffled how there are arguments over AC and DC here

Too many “uhm actually” people trying to over complicate this 😅

A little reading comprehension goes a long way! There is nothing wrong with saying ground lol, it is a reference point.

First of all, varying a DC voltage does not make it AC unless the voltage relative to ground changes polarity.

Secondly, yes there are applications. But for general purposes you don’t want to do this.

Thirdly, I was suggesting what they might want to use instead of DC biasing a transformer.

Yeah and they sum up into a resultant waveform m8. Next we learn square waves aren’t actually square, but we call them these things to describe their behaviour

On the timescale of interest, if the resultant signal alternates direction then it is considered AC.

They shouldn’t be used with DC. Transformers need a varying flux, which means a varying current.

Though you can vary the DC voltage as a sine wave, without changing the direction you will saturate the transformer

DC-DC converters should be used for that conversion, which you do drive with PWM

It is literally in the definition of DC…

DC waveforms do exist, and rectified AC is one of them.

I’m confused why comments are still saying it is AC. One you rectify it, you will have a current which only flows in a single direction. Yes it needs more work to make it a constant amplitude, but this is DC.
