Can anyone give me a simple basic circuit to turn DC into AC?
Sure. It is actually pretty easy to convert a low voltage dc power source (such as from a car battery) to a high voltage ac source. These types of circuits are called dc-to-ac power inverters whose primary components are usually power MOSFETS (or some other kind of fast switching power transistor), a couple of capicitors, and a center tapped transformer. Upon typing “inverter circuits” (with or without quotes) into google I was able to obtain the following sight on the first hit: http://www.discovercircuits.com/C/co-dct… You might try other key words in combination with inverter, such as dc-to-ac, schematic, applications, etc. Hope this helps.
