Awhile back I published a simple design idea for a thermal airspeed sensor based on a self-heated Darlington transistor pair. The resulting sensor is simple, sensitive, and solid-state, but suffers ...
The control circuit in Figure 1a allows you to manually adjust the power delivered to a load. By changing the setting of potentiometer R 3, you change the phase angle at which the thyristor (Q 3) ...
