Basic_triac_zero_point_switch

Published:2009/7/21 23:16:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows a manually controlled zero-point switch that is useful in power control for resistive loads. Q2 turns on near zero on both the positive and negative half-cycles of the line input. When S1 is closed, Q1 turns on, shunts gate current away from Q2, and keeps Q2 from turning on during either half cycle. The 2N6346 triac shown will handle resistive loads up to 8 A.   (View)

Long_life_circuit_for_an_incandescent_lamp

Published:2009/7/21 22:26:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit shows an MKP9V270 SIDAC used to phase-control anincandescent lamp，thus lowering the RMS voltage to the filament and prolongingthe life ofthe bulb，This is particularly useful when lamps are used In hard to reachlocations，such as In outdoor lighting In stgns where replacement costs are high. Bulb life span can be extended by 1.5 to 5 times，depending on the type of lamp，theamount of power reduction to the filament，and the number of times the lamp is switched on from a cold filament condition. Practical conduction angles runbetween 110°and 130°，with corresponding power reductions of 10%to 30%.   (View)

Digitally_controlled_time_delay

Published:2009/7/21 21:42:00 Author:Jessie

Digitally controlled time delay. This circuit generates a time delay controlled by the digital input of the AD7520. The current fed into the integrator's summing point at OUT 1 is determined by the D/A converter's input. The output of the integrator remains low until the trigger input of the 555tmergoes low. At that time the timer's output goes high, unclamping the output and permitting the integrator to change upward until it reaches 2/3VDD, at which time the timer's output goes low and the integrator is reset to zero. The time delay is D/D1REF×10V, where D is the fractional binary equivalent of the digital input word (courtesy Analog Devices, Inc.).   (View)

This circuit shows a full-range ac control scheme that uses a triac and SBS. Control is obtained by varying the 100-k Ω pot. Notice thatRGK can be omitted when nonsensitive gates are used. The double time constants of this circuit produce low hysteresis, which thus extends the control range.   (View)

Zero_crossing_switch_with_SCR_slave_configuration

Published:2009/7/21 22:22:00 Author:Jessie

This circuit provides a single pulse to the gate of SCR Q2 each time that SCR Q1 turns on, thus turning Q2 on for the half-cycle following the half-cycle during which Q1was on. Q2 is turned on only when Q1 is turned on, and the load can be controlled by a signal applied to the gate of Q1. The control signal can be either dc or a power pulse. The SCR used must be capable of handling the maximum current requirements of the load to be driven. The 8-A 200-V SCRs shown will handle a 1-kW load. 2N6397s can also be used in this circuit, and will hands up to 12 A.   (View)
