Hi all!
I want control Ac motor speed.Can I use PWM to control AC motor through MOC3041 and Triac Which i cant use zero crossing detect circuit ?Because MOC3041 supported zero crossing circuit.So Do i only control PWM ?
Thanks?
 

As you are talking about A triac, I presume its a single phase motor. If its a universal motor with brushes then you can control the speed by this method. If its a AC only motor, then its speed is set by its number of poles and the mains frequency.
