Introduction
This application note describes a traditional design solution for controlling a mono phase
motor or any AC load based on phase-angle adjusting with a TRIAC or AC switch and a
microcontroller as a driver. This solution is greatly improved with new software and ST
components. This document contains information on the STEVAL-ILL004V1 evaluation
board, including jumper settings, load connection, and device and software features. The
electronic driver with a TRIAC and microcontroller presented in this document is cost
effective and easy for designers to implement.
These electronic devices are typically used in home appliances or in industrial applications
for various purposes, such as motor regulation in washing machines, vacuum cleaner
control, light dimming in lamps, heating in a coffee machines, or motor regulation in
ventilators. Analog solutions are being progressively replaced by microcontroller designs
even in low-cost applications.
Advantages include fewer external components, easy adaptation through simple software
modifications, control components can be designed with either a potentiometer or a
pushbutton, easy feedback implementation, and flexibility. An analog IC’s functionality is tied
to its application and the designer is limited to fixed device functions.
The STEVAL-ILL004V1 was replaced by the new improved evaluation board STEVAL-
ILL004V2 and therefore the STEVAL-ILL004V1 will not be orderable. The main difference
between the two evaluation boards is the microcontroller; the STEVAL-ILL004V2 uses the
smaller 8-pin ST7ULTRALITE microcontroller while the STEVAL-ILL004V1 uses a 16-pin
ST7FLITE09 microcontroller.
