Hello,
I am new to this forum. I'm an electrician entering the mysterious world of electronics. I want to build a small circuit board using a TRIAC and two potentiometers to control a 12 amp 230vac induction heating coil. Could some kind person refer me to a source for the appropriate schematic. or you could simply email it to me. I assume that can be done trough this forum. If not, I will provide my email address. Thanks, Neil

 

Hello,

Here is a page from the EDUCYPEDIA with all kinds of information on diac, triac and thyristors.

Thers is a special application note on inductive loads.
