They haven't separated yet!
ac/dc started up with Bon Scott in 1967
The panel itself produces DC and if it is connected to mains electricity it needs a separate converter to change the current to AC.

ac/dc
A typical AC waveform is symmetrical about a zero crossing point. You can bias the AC with DC such that the AC waveform is symmetrical about the DC voltage.
formula for ac to dc
The difference AC and DC grounding is that AC is alternate current and DC is direct current. Grounding for both AC and DC is the same.
Ac/dc
AC/DC are from Sydney, Australia.
A separate electrical device called an "inverter" changes the DC to AC. This is the reverse process of small plug-in transformers that convert AC to DC. The power from a single panel may be altered by a small DC-DC transformer (optimizer) before the combined output of all panels is changed to AC power. Some typical inverters use a 200 to 400 volt DC output to generate 90 to 140 volt AC output. Similar devices allow a car battery at 12 volts DC to power small AC devices.
AC means alternating current DC means direct current there is no polarity reversal
