Single Phase Triac

Simplified triac for alternating current

Modelica Standard Library

	Description
	The Single Phase Triac component is a simplified model of a triode, built from two antiparallel thyristors. Thyristor1 has to be fired during the positive halfwave, thyristor2 has to be fired during the negative halfwave.
