A Single phase induction motor is the predominant fractional horsepower power rated, extensively used in domestic and industrial application. For example, these motors provide the motive power to washing machines, fans, refrigerators, etc. In this paper, single phase induction motor input current was detected by a small current transformer and determined TRIAC gate signal by using op-amp analog circuit. The soft-start strategy is based on limited auxiliary current angle during starting period in the closed-loop control. The Simulation and experimental result show the motor's starting characteristics of the proposal starting system and are compared with centrifugal switch starting motor.

This paper describes the development of temperature controller using program control method for small heating system. This system consists of three parts; sensing part, control part that includes the PID control algorithm, and actuating part. We introduce a zero-crossing control method of TRIAC and firmware technique using single chip micro-controller(ATmega8535) in the control part.

This paper describes a simple but effective method for energy saving of ac motors having a widely variable load. The proposed method is based on an optimal efficiency control which is operated by voltage-current pattern such as to maintain the maximum efficiency on the efficiency-output characteristics of the motor, in voltage control with triac. In this paper, authors present the experimental results of the SPIM under controlling of current of main and auxiliary winding by using a one chip microcontroller. Experiments are focused on a capacitor stating single phase induction motor the optimal energy saving are proved by the proposed method.

Drivers for LED MR16 retrofit lamps need to be compatible with the dimmers and electronic transformers which originally operated with the halogen lamps to be replaced. We present a two-stage MR16 LED driver consisting of a boost converter in the first stage and a buck converter in the second stage. Our design has been analyzed in the frequency domain using simulations to demonstrate that it effectively suppresses the high-frequency components of the AC output of the electronic transformer. Experiment results with a driver prototype verify the simulation results as well as dimmability.

We have development the dimming controller using the ac chopper technique. The ac chopper change the amplitude of the input source voltage with the unchanged its frequency. The conventional dimming controller is operated by controlling voltage phase and is consist of the triac. It has a bad characteristic about a current THD and a power factor. But the dimming controller using the at chopper technique has a low current THD and a good power factor. The developed dimming controller is consist of the MOSFET and the low pass filter. The system is operated by the variation circuit of the input source voltage and the microprocessor.

The single phase induction motor(SPIM) with two windings, main and auxiliary winding, is widely used due to ruggedness, low maintenance and simplicity of construction. There are several ways of starting single phase induction motor. The most common method is to use centrifugal switch that is connected in series with a capacitor. But the centrifugal switch that is the external starting system has many problems. In this paper, we use triac to overcome defects that happen by centrifugal switch, Also we used inductor that connected with main winding to get a gate trigger voltage signal. Experiments are focused on a capacitor starling single phase induction motor.

This paper describes the development of temperature controller for seedbed heating system. This system consisted of three parts; sensing part, control part that includes the PID control algorithm, and actuating part. The control part introduced a phase angle control method of TRIAC and firmware technique using one-chip microcontroller(PIC16C73). For evaluating the performance of a PID control system, the experiment results by a developed controller are compared with these obtained from a conventional controller which utilize ON-OFF control method. The experiment results show that the proposed controller has good control performance.

To convert the analog signal from the drying process into the digital signal, the interface circuit was designed and built. To measure the weight and temperature during drying process, strain gauge type load cell and temperature transducer composed of pt 100 $\Omega$ thermometers and wheatstone bridge circuits were built and used. The temperature control device was composed of photocoupler and triac. Microcomputer aided experimental convective drying system was built with above cricuits and devices. Drying characteristics of onions can be estimated using this system.

We have proposed the dimming controller using the AC chopper technique. The AC chopper changes the amplitude of the input source voltage with the same frequency. The conventional dimming controller is operated by controlling voltage phase with the triac. It has bad characteristics of the input current THD and the input power factor But the dimming controller using the ac chopper technique has a low current THD and a good power factor. The developed dimming controller is consist of the IGBT and the low pass filter. The system is operated by the variation circuit of the input source voltage and the microprocessor.
