In this video author will present the most important facts about a controllable diode, the thyristor. He will also build a small experimental circuit to control AC voltage with the help of a triac.

WARNING!! The circuit diagram discussed in this project is only for educational purposes. Be advised that working with 220V AC mains voltage requires extreme precaution and safety procedures should be ...

This universal triac controller circuit with optocoupler solves the problem that triacs have when functioning at low temperatures (triac needs higher gate current) by adding a transistor at the output ...

Sometimes, we might need an AC bulb flasher circuit that can blink a series of bulbs in a particular time interval for decorative purposes. By controlling the flashing time interval and sequence, we ...

this project use STM32F103C8T6 develop a heating system with PID cotroller, it allows user to set target temperature using the command line interface through the UART communication with PC.

This is a simple implementation of Phase angle control for a Triac. The code is written in Micropython and has been tested on a Pi Pico development board with RP2040 microcontroller. The phase angle ...

Abstract: TRIAC dimmable LED driver senses the input phase or RMS voltage to determine the dimming current level. Most TRIAC dimmable LED drivers use bleeding circuits to help supply enough holding ...

Abstract: A single-stage TRIAC (TRIode for alternating current switch) dimmable LED (light emitting diode) driver using a buck converter fed through a capacitor input rectifier provides many ...
