Hey all
Im building a circuit that turns on an 80W bulb over 30min. Im plannin on running the bulb through a triac which runs from a 220v ac source. I plan to control the triac using a 10V rectified circuit, where a cap charges over 30min.Im new at triacs so i want to know if/what its turn on voltage is, and if i can simply apply my rising voltage to the gate of the triac to cause the bulb to brighten?
