A zero voltage detector evaluates the zero passages and transfers them to the synchronization register. This synchronization register controls a ramp generator the capacitor C10 of which is charged by a constant current determined by fa . If the ramp voltage V10 exceeds the control voltage V11 triggering angle 9 a signal is processed to the logic. Dependent on the magnitude of the control voltage V11 the triggering angle 9 can be shifted within a phase angle of 0 to 180 . For every half wave a positive pulse of approx. 30 is duration appears at the outputs Q 1 and Q 2. The pulse duration can be prolonged up to 180 via a capacitor C12. If pin 12 is connected to ground pulses with a duration between 9 and 180 will result. Outputs Q 1 and Q 2 supply the inverse .
