Inverter technology is the key
Inverter technology for microwave ovens has been developed by a Panasonic initiative over a period of more than 10 years. It is the
key technology for making a very different type of microwave oven which has a number of special qualities:
• It makes possible the first oven in the industry which controls the amount of microwave energy linearly. This new distribution
system allows cooking and defrosting food without losing its flavour.
• It provides efficient conversion of electrical energy to microwave energy, resulting in minimizing power requirements without
sacrificing microwave output.
• It allows a dramatic enlargement of oven cavity size even in a compact oven body, due to the small size of the inverter circuit,
which replaces the currently used bulky transformer.
• Finally, at the end of the product's useful life, not using bulky transformers made of iron makes the process of recycling discarded
ovens environmentally friendly.
