A zero voltage detector evaluates the zero passages and transfers them to the synchronization register. This synchronization register controls a ramp generator, the capacitor C10 of which is charged by a constant current (determined by R9). If the ramp voltage V10 exceeds the control voltage V11 (triggering angle ϕ), a signal is processed to the logic. Dependent on the magnitude of the control voltage V11, the triggering angle ϕ can be shifted within a phase angle of 0˚ to 180˚. For every half wave, a positive pulse of approx. 30 µs duration appears at the outputs Q 1 and Q 2. The pulse duration can be prolonged up to 180˚ via a capacitor C12. If pin 12 is connected to ground, pulses with a duration between ϕ and 180˚ will result. Outputs Q 1 and Q 2 supply the inverse signals of Q 1 and Q 2. A signal of ϕ +180˚ which can be used for controlling an external logic,is available at pin 3. A signal which corresponds to the NOR link of Q 1 and Q 2 is available at output Q Z (pin 7). The inhibit input can be used to disable outputs Q1, Q2 and Q 1 , Q 2 . Pin 13 can be used to extend the outputs Q 1 and Q 2 to full pulse length (180˚ – ϕ).

The triggering angle of the triac can be adjusted continuously between 0˚ and 180˚ with the aid of an external potentiometer. During the positive half-wave of the line voltage, the triac receives a positive gate pulse from the IC output pin 15. During the negative half-wave, it also receives a positive trigger pulse from pin 14. The trigger pulse width is approx. 100 µs. Semiconductor Group 13 TCA 785 Fully Controlled AC Power Controller Circuit for Two High-Power Thyristors Shown is the possibility to trigger two antiparalleled thyristors with one IC TCA 785. The trigger pulse can be shifted continuously within a phase angle between 0˚ and 180˚ by means of a potentiometer. During the negative line half-wave the trigger pulse of pin 14 is fed to the relevant thyristor via a trigger pulse transformer. During the positive line half-wave, the gate of the second thyristor is triggered by a trigger pulse transformer at pin 15.
