This application note will describe a low-cost microcontroller-based replacement for the mechanical thermostat which eliminates these drawbacks. The PIC10F204, Microchip’s 6-pin PICmicro® ...

The EC102 is a Smart Digital Triac Control Board used for regulating speed in motors, pumps and etc. The board has an input voltage of 120/240 VAC and maximum current of 12 A. It uses LED’s to ...

Fig 1. This efficient pre-regulator for a dc power supply uses an optical feedback loop to minimize dissipation rather than the traditional optically isolated TRIAC drivers. Fig 2. The PSpice ...

Diacs and triacs are often used for control of ac lines and are seeing increasing use in Internet-enabled line switches. However, the traditional approach of modeling them using bipolar transistors ...

Triacs are at the heart of dimming controls for LED lighting. Triacs used in dimmers have normally been characterised and specified for incandescent lamp loads, which have high current ratings for ...
