I am looking for a circuit for reverse phase control (also known in the lighting world as 'trailing edge dimmers').
There seems to be very little technical information around - I can't find anything in the libraries, and the Net isn't very helpful either.
I believe that the switching components used in commercial dimmers are IGBTs (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistors). If anyone knows anything about these, can you tell me how they work?
Any reverse phase circuits or info is much appreciated!
