Hi guys!
I'm trying to implement a dimmer to my bedroom. I was looking this projet from this site: <snip>, as far as I understood, the power sent to the lamp would be controlled by the potenciometer, and the DIAC is there to reduce the harmonics. I simulated this circuit first ou Multisim 11 and the values I suposed was right didn't work. Can anyone help me on how to correctly calculate these values?
Thanks,
