**Triac Circuits and Silicon Controlled Switches**

**11. Triac Circuit Analysis for Figure 11–58**

Repeat Problem 10 for the triac circuit in Figure 11–58. The breakover potential is 25 V and \( I_H = 1 \, \text{mA} \).

**Figure 11–58 Explanation**

- The graph shows an AC waveform with a peak voltage of 15 V.
- The circuit diagram includes a 4.7 kΩ resistor in series with a triac.

**The Silicon-Controlled Switch (SCS)**

**12.** Explain the turn-on and turn-off operation of an SCS in terms of its transistor equivalent.

**13.** Name the terminals of an SCS.

**The Unijunction Transistor (UJT)**

**14.** In a certain UJT, \( r'_{BB1} = 2.5 \, \text{k}\Omega \) and \( r'_{BB2} = 4 \, \text{k}\Omega \). What is the intrinsic standoff ratio?

**15.** Determine the peak-point voltage for the UJT in Problem 14 if \( V_{BB} = 15 \, \text{V} \).

**16.** Find the range of values of \( R_1 \) in Figure 11–59 that will ensure proper turn-on and turn-off of the UJT. \( \eta = 0.68 \), \( V_\text{V} = 0.8 \, \text{V} \), \( I_\text{V} = 15 \, \text{mA} \), \( I_p = 10 \, \mu\text{A} \), and \( V_p = 10 \, \text{V} \).
