Abstract
A thyristor or triac control circuit includes a first capacitive element that is series-connected with a first diode between a first terminal and a second terminal intended to be coupled to a gate of the thyristor or triac. A second capacitive element is coupled between the second terminal and a third terminal intended to be connected to a conduction terminal of the thyristor or triac on the gate side of the thyristor or triac. A second diode is coupled between the third terminal and a node of connection of the first capacitive element and first diode.
