This is an Arduino compatible AC voltage dimmer. Microcontrollers also can be used instead of Arduino. With this dimmer, you can control the speed of AC fan & brightness of light (only incandescent light). Check out the example code given in the documents section to understand its use.


This module cannot be used with energy saving bulbs, only incandescent bulbs. This module is very hard to control with Raspberry Pi, you need to know interrupt handling and timer ISR. It would be better if you could use this one:

Digital AC Voltage Dimmer

This module has a built-in microcontroller under it and takes care of Interrupts, Timer ISR etc. You just have to give 0V and 5V 100ms pulses to +/- pins to increase or decrease load voltage.

 

 

NB: This device does NOT support tube, fluorescent or energy saving bulbs.

Q: will it be possible to control ac fan too? Is heat sink required with this module? Questioned by pronabsaha137, 24-Oct-2016

You can. Heat sink is not needed for fan-light. For bigger loads it may need. Answered by A.R, 25-Oct-2016 11:19 AM

Q: There is some thing I do not understand, I need only PWM pin from Arduino, but what will another pin, and I get some code from stack over flow, this codes are very friendly, and I want to use that codes,: CODES: intledPin = 3; void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); Serial.println("Serial connection started, waiting for instructions…n0 = Offn1 = 25%n2 =50%n3 = 75%n4 = 100%"); } void loop () { if (Serial.available()) { char ser = Serial.read(); //read serial as a character //NOTE because the serial is read as “char” and not “int”, the read value must be compared to character numbers //hence the quotes around the numbers in the case statement switch (ser) { case '0': analogWrite(ledPin, 0); break; case '1': analogWrite(ledPin, 64); break; case '2': analogWrite(ledPin, 128); break; case '3': analogWrite(ledPin, 192); break; case '4': analogWrite(ledPin, 255); break; default: Serial.println("Invalid entry"); } } } Questioned by asif.uz, 24-Nov-2016

The power LED isn't lighting after connecting to _5v and GND. Is my module faulty? Answered by abushuvom, 12-Aug-2017 20:12 PM

Yes Same Here . Adriano does not detect the device Answered by faisalbinfarooq, 13-Aug-2017 21:40 PM

Hello Mr, Shuvom, Sorry for your inconvenience. That LED is not power LED. That's brightness LED. After Connecting 5V,GND, RLY, O-X and 220V AC and uploading proper code to arduino, that LED will light up with dimmed intensity. Try that. If that doesn't work feel free to comment here or come to our office. We'll have a chat. Answered by fahim08buet, 16-Aug-2017 11:00 AM

Yes but you have to program it by yourself. Answered by A.R, 27-Jul-2017 16:06 PM

Q: Although I can dim AC lamps with this module and the code provided, however, I can't control FAN speed with this. FAN rotates very slowly with whatever dimming value provided. Is anyone successfully tested controlling FAN with this? Questioned by abushuvom, 18-Aug-2017

We have tested this module on AC ceiling fans and it works fine. I added snubber circuit to it, just to make it work with inductive loads like "FAN". So it should work fine if you connect it properly. Answered by fahim08buet, 20-Aug-2017 11:17 AM

Q: Yeah it works fine with some tuning on the code. The dimming value range varies depending on the type of load. Thanks Questioned by abushuvom, 20-Aug-2017

Q: There are 4 pins in this module which are named GND, RLY, O-X, 5V I need to know the use of RLY pin and O-X pin. Questioned by robinabdullah, 20-Oct-2017

Q: can i use pwm signal for controlling fan speed ? Questioned by robinabdullah, 20-Oct-2017

O-X pin gives input to Arduino and depending on those inputs RLY pin turn on and off you load for very small time. O-X is for zero cross detection and RLY stands for relay. PWM won't work. We need interrupt. Proper way is to use the device is using the demo code. There's a demo code in "Documents" section (https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3pZmaDwygPcT2E0SzlLc2Nnb0k/view). Open that example code and read commented lines at the beginning of the code. You'll find every instruction to run this device. Using the code above, you can control speed of AC fan.

Q: Response Time is very High... OLED gone slow, IR not working... Ki jinish bhai eta? dimtime = 65 * dimming; // For 60Hz =>65 delayMicroseconds(dimtime + CORRECTION); // Wait till firing the TRIAC Reduce this [dimtime] otherwise It can work. Very Sad... Questioned by monzur0010, 25-Jun-2018

Our original code was: int dimtime = (95*dimming); // For 60Hz =>65 delayMicroseconds(dimtime+CORRECTION); // Wait till firing the TRIAC NOT 65 we used 95. We've tested this code numerous times, and it works perfectly. We used a macro called CORRECTION on the latest code. Sometimes the value of the resistors can be on the worst possible poles, which will affect the dimming code. So we enabled our user to tweak CORRECTION value and fine tune their device.
