I’m looking for a way to get an 80w ordinary 230v bulb flickering by the use off a triac.
I want to imitate a live candle, I seen it in some theather.
I’m thinking like drive the triac with a microcontroller, or just some op-amp’s and transistors.
Looking forward to get some help.
You can try using the PWM included in some microcontrollers, or u can try driving a DAC with a 8-bit port in a microcontroller.
search the "using the PWM module" Aplication note in microchip.com
