Question
A high frequency series inverter consists of
Options
A. a number of series inverters in series
B. a number of series inverters in parallel
C. a number of parallel inverters in parallel
D. a number of parallel inverters in series

Correct Answer

a number of series inverters in parallel

Explanation
