Hi,
I'm using a Diac (DB3) in a simple circuit to study its behavior. The schematic is attached. The output is not what I expect! The break over voltage of this Diac is 34 volts.
The time the input sin wave is less than 34 Volts, The diac is off and the output is the same as input. when the intput voltage exceeds 34 volts, then the diac turns on and so the output should be zero!!!! but it's not in practice.
What I see on the scope is the constant 34 volts while the diac is on. Why's that? I can't figure out!!!!
Looking forward for your assists.
