This research determines the Sawtooth’s behavior in a single-phase transformer. The sawtooth wave is a non-sinusoidal waveform. The rise time is higher than its fall of time, vice versa, by less than 50 per cent of the duty cycle. Otherwise, in reverse sawtooth waves, the wave slopes descend and afterwards pointedly rise with a constant current. The commonly used to produce a sawtooth wave generator is an operational amplifier. The sequence is from DC supply, the comparator output is square wave to rectangular wave, and input to the integrator, the result is the integral of the information concerning time. Therefore, the output wave is sawtooth. Apply a sawtooth wave in the transformer and determine the output. The transformer principle only AC will pass, and base in the inductance formula Ldi/dt. The first degree of constant current is zero; therefore, the output must be semi sine or sine wave.
