DESCRIPTION
pin 3
The FLC21 series have been developed especially
for capacitance discharge operation. The main
applications are: fuel ignitor, fuel or gas heater,
gas range, cook top, barbecue, water heater,
HVAC, portable ignitor, insect killers.
It uses a high performance planar diffused
technology device adapted to high temperature in
rugged environmental conditions.
The typical supply of the FLC21 fire lighter circuit is
a DC battery or the AC mains.

PHASE 2
PHASE 1
At the end of the phase 1, the voltage across the
capacitor C reaches the avalanche threshold of
the Zener diode Z. Then, a current flows through
this Zener diode into the gate of the thyristor Th
which is triggered.
The thyristor turn on generates an alternating
current through the capacitor C. Its positive parts
flow through the capacitor C, the primary of the HV
transformer and the thyristor Th. Its negative parts
of the current flow through C, D and the primary of
the H.V transformer.
The AC voltage is rectified by the diode Ds.
The ignition energy is supplied by the mains
and stored into the capacitor C.

RS RESISTANCE CALCULATION
The Rs resistance allows, in addition with the
capacitance C, to adjust the spark frequency and
to limit the current supplied by the mains. This
resistance allows the thyristor triggering in any
requested cases. In worst cases, the system must
fire when the a.c. line voltage is minimum while the
breakdown voltage VBO and the current IBO of the
FLC are maximum.
The maximum Rs value is equal to:
Rs max =
(V AC min. 2 ) − [V BO max .(1 + α T .( T amb − 25 ))]
