Claim 27:
28. The electrical load controller of claim 23, wherein the zero-crossings of the input AC waveform comprise negative-going zero-crossings of the input AC waveform, wherein a time offset of the at least one time offset is a negative-going time offset representing amounts of time between (i) zero-crossings of the input signal waveform indicative of the negative-going zero-crossings of the input AC waveform and (ii) a group of transitions of the corresponding transitions of the output signal from the output of the zero-crossing detector circuit, each transition of the group of transitions indicating a respective negative-going zero-crossing of the input AC waveform, and wherein the adjusting the half-cycle time comprises adding the negative-going time offset to, or subtracting the negative-going time offset from, the determined half-cycle time.
