Abstract :
This paper presents a triac converter which can replace two thyristor bridges normally used for regenerative dc motor drives. The most important characteristics of the triac are outlined and specific problems are discussed. Performance specifications for the control electronics are given. An experimental drive is presented and some run measurements are shown.
