Morphology

uninverted = inverted (transparent) = un + invert + ed

The adjective is formed by adding the productive negating prefix 'un-' to 'inverted', yielding the straightforward meaning 'not inverted' for signal polarity.

Etymology

Uninverted is made of un- 'not' and invert 'to turn or flip'. So in audio and electrical use, uninverted means the signal has not been flipped and keeps the same direction as the original.
