8 results about "TRIAC" patented technology

TRIAC, from triode for alternating current, is a generic trademark for a three terminal electronic component that conducts current in either direction when triggered. Its formal name is bidirectional triode thyristor or bilateral triode thyristor. A thyristor is analogous to a relay in that a small voltage induced current can control a much larger voltage and current. The illustration on the right shows the circuit symbol for a TRIAC where A1 is Anode 1, A2 is Anode 2, and G is Gate. Anode 1 and Anode 2 are normally termed Main Terminal 1 (MT1) and Main Terminal 2 (MT2) respectively.

A triac-based LED driver control circuit

This invention provides a triac-controlled LED driver control circuit, relating to the field of circuit technology. The circuit includes a circuit board with a microcontroller mounted on its top surface. One end of the microcontroller is electrically connected to a resistor dimmer via a power line, another end is electrically connected to a rectifier via a power line, and yet another end is electrically connected to an optocoupler via a power line. Several sets of resistive elements are arranged on the surface of the circuit board. In use, this invention enables dimming via three input signals: triac dimming, 0 / 1~10V dimming, and resistor dimmer dimming. These three dimming input signal voltage changes are converted into an output PWM signal pulse width by the microcontroller to control the turn-on time of the low-voltage MOS transistor Q3. The dimming process does not affect the normal operation of the driver power supply system, thus avoiding issues with flickering and dimming depth.

Defibrillator with solid state protection circuitry

AED patient protection circuitry is improved by using triode for alternating current (TRIACs), which are significantly smaller and cheaper than relays. The TRIACs are positioned between a defibrillation waveform generator and the pads through which defibrillation waveforms are delivered to the patient and alternate under the control of a processing element such as a microcontroller between a conductive state in which they allow the defibrillation waveforms to reach the patient through the pads and an isolated state in which they prevent the defibrillation waveforms from reaching the patient through the pads. A voltage monitor interfaced to the microcontroller can monitor current leakage from the TRIACs or other portions of the defibrillator, thus detecting degradation of patient protection circuitry and further increasing defibrillator safety and reliability.

A mesa triac structure for improved igt consistency

This invention belongs to, but is not limited to, the field of thyristor technology, and discloses a mesa thyristor structure for improving IGT consistency. It includes a glass tank terminal, a cathode, and a gate, with no adjacent gate region. The glass tank terminal ensures high voltage for the device. The cathode is the current outflow terminal. The gate receives a trigger current, which flows from the gate to the cathode region, controlling the thyristor's conduction. This invention reduces the distance between the cathode region and the glass tank to zero, eliminating the boron-expanded region, which no longer affects IGT parameters, resulting in minimal IGT differences between the wafer edge and central regions. During mesa etching, the width of the glass tank does not affect IGT parameters, making the requirements for mesa etching less stringent and suitable for mass production.
