The Silicon Controlled Rectifier Dimmer
A new device has been developed which makes possible startling new concepts in lighting. By radically reducing volume, weight and heat generated per kilowatt, without any sacrifice in electrical characteristics, it has become possible to package this semiconductor device as a portable plug-in module. Its advantages over present state of the art methods are demonstrated. In addition, these advantages make possible a new systems concept. The world's first broadcast application of the aforementioned is detailed as utilized by a new broadcasting center.
