The aforementioned have contributed financially to the continuing triumph of 4hv.org. They are deserving of my most heartfelt thanks.
I didn't get much luck with LM311 and left it alone now I'm trying again I got the idea of using a DIAC to trigger the SCR since DIACs usually triggers at 28V, and my capacitors charges up to 160V, maybe using a low current voltage divider is a good idea? I was thinking about something like 10k/2,2k divisor
well I just did this simulation on (File -> Import) I used a 130V zener instead of a DIAC as I said before... but I guess that will work the same way
the problem here is that the simulator SCR triggers with min 1V and min 10mA... but mine (S6055R) triggers with MAX 1.5V and 5mA so the current is ok, but how will I send just 1.5V? another divider after the zener?!
