Circuit diagram of illumination controller using diac and triac?
a circuit diagram consist of diac&triac
Can you use Diac and Triac for dc supply?
The diac conducts in both directions at approximately the same voltage, making it unsuitable in an AC to DC supply. The triac also conducts in both directions, based on a gate voltage which is slightly different in the two usable quadrants. That is why the diac is often used to trigger the triac - it makes the two conduction cycles more symmetric. In both cases, the diac/triac does not make sense for an AC to DC supply, but it works well in an AC voltage regulator, such as a lamp dimmer or motor speed controller.
What is the typical breakover voltage for a DIAC used in an electronic control circuit in which 120 VAC?
about ~30v
What is the difference between a DIAC and a TRIAC?
A DIAC is simply a diode that breaks down at predictable voltage.A TRIAC is a 3 terminal device that will conduct whether the anode is at a positive or a negative potential, controlled by a gate.Another answerThey are AC versions of the SCR and diode respectively. Do you need more details?
Why diac is used?
The diac is use to balance the turn on characteristics of a triac, so that each half line cycle is the same (reversed) as the prior cycle, and the no DC bias exists in the runnng circuit.The TRIAC turns on when M2 is more posistive than M1 and the gate is more positive than M1. The TRIAC also turns on when M2 is less positive than M1 and the gate is more negative than M1. Unfortunately the gate volatages are not symmetrical in the two quadrants, so the DIAC is used in series with the gate to provide a large, more stable, turn on based on symmetrical voltage trip point.
Can you equivalent the DIAC and comment?
A DIAC is a full-wave or bi-directional semiconductor switch that can be turned on in both forward and reverse polarities.
Difference between diac and triac?
The diac and the triac are used to control the AC lines. The difference is that triac are bigger than diac.

What is a DIAC?
Diac is a bidirectional electronic switch that can pass current in either directions according to the polarity applied on it.
Can a diac trigger scr?
No, a Diac cannot trigger an SCR because when the Diac turns ON, the current through the Diac is around 9 mA. The gate threshold current of an SCR is typically 5 mA, which is less. So the SCR can get damaged due to this high gate current.
Can DIAC be replaced by two anti-parallel diodes?
i think not.diodes have a low breakdown voltage, around 1v. a diac has bv of about 30v.
What is function of DIAC?
A DIAC is a diode alternating current switch. Its construction consists of two back to back diodes. It is usually used for triggering TRIACS.
Give the name of termials of DIAC?
Did I Act Crazy
What is the Full form of DIAC?
diode for alternating current
Application of diac?
The diac acts like an open-circuit until its switching or breakover voltage is exceeded. At that point the diac conducts until its current reduces toward zero (below the level of the holding current of the device). The diac, because of its peculiar construction, does not switch sharply into a low voltage condition at a low current level like the SCR or triac. Instead, once it goes into conduction, the diac maintains an almost continuous negative resistance characteristic, that is, voltage decreases with the increase in current. This means that, unlike the SCR and the triac, the diac cannot be expected to maintain a low (on) voltage drop until its current falls below a holding current level.
What is the advantages of DIAC in electronic devices?
it help student study better
When the DIAC turns on, the drop voltage will be decrease, why?
Less than consumption of
