Fig. 2: BASIC APPLICATION
The applications of the lighter using the
capacitance discharge topology operate in 2
phases :
PHASE 1
The energy coming from the mains is stored into
the capacitor C. For that, the AC voltage is rectified
by the diode Ds.
RS RESISTOR CALCULATION
The Rs resistor allows, in addition with the capacitor C, the spark frequency to be adjusted and the current
from the mains to be limited. Its value shall allow the thyristor Th to fire even in the worst case. In this case
the system must fire with the lower RMS mains voltage value while the breakdown voltage and current of
the FLC are at the maximum.

PHASE 2
At the end of the phase 1, the voltage across the
capacitor C reaches the avalanche threshold of
the zener. Then a current flows through the gate of
the thyristor Th which fires.
The firing of the thyristor causes an alternating
current to flow through the capacitor C.
The positive parts of this current flow through C,
Th and the primary of the HV transformer.
The negative parts of the current flow through C, D
and the primaty of the HV transformer.
