Why is it called an invertor?

Typical microwaves use fixed AC power to drive the magnetron.
Inverter driven
magnetrons use DC power, which can be variable.
*No, the inverter still produces AC - but the AC is variable. The AC
in both systems is rectified to DC for the magnetron.

The inverter produces a lot higher frequency AC than line frequency.
High frequency produces a much easier to filter DC .

Plus smaller coils/transformers/inductors required.

[crosspost repaired, stop ****ing about]

put you dick in the microwave and see if two minutes is fast enough
