Air Gap Operating Range

The Programmable Air Gap Range, AGRange, can be pro-

grammed around the zero crossing point, within the range limits:

AGRange(min) and AGRange(max). The available programming

range for AGRange falls within the distributions of the initial,

minimum code setpoint (BOPSEL = 255, BOPPOL = 1), and the

maximum code setpoint (BOPSEL = 255, BOPPOL = 0). The

switchpoint can correspond to an air gap smaller than 1.5 mm or

larger than 2.5 mm, as shown in figure 3.

Figure 3. On the horizontal axis, the operating air gap may exceed the

recommended range for switching. The maximum and minimum values

for the actual operating air gap range are described by distributions of the

maximum and minimum code setpoints.
