Abstract: A load control circuit having first and second terminals for connection in series with a controlled load comprises a bidirectional semiconductor switch for switching at least a portion of both positive and negative half cycles of an alternating current source waveform to the load. The bidirectional semiconductor switch has a control electrode. The load control circuit includes a phase angle setting circuit, including a timing circuit, which sets the phase angle during each half cycle of the AC source waveform when the bidirectional semiconductor switch conducts. The phase angle setting circuit includes a voltage threshold trigger device connected in series with the control electrode of the switch. The phase angle setting circuit further comprises a rectifier bridge connected in series between an output of the timing circuit and the control electrode of the semiconductor switch, wherein the rectifier bridge has a first pair of terminals and a second pair of terminals, the first pair of terminals connected in series between an output of the timing circuit and the control electrode of the semiconductor switch, and the second pair of terminals connected to the voltage threshold trigger device. The load control circuit further includes an impedance in series electrical connection with the semiconductor switch control electrode.  Acoustic noise generated in the load connected in series with the load control circuit is reduced, particularly when the load is a toroidal transformer driving a magnetic low voltage lamp and the load control circuit is a two-wire dimmer.
