ABSTRACT:
A pulse transformer is provided for triggering a magnetron in a microwave oven from a low level d.c. control signal. A step-up transformer has a secondary connected to a magnetron triac and a primary connected to a blocking oscillator circuit. The blocking oscillator circuit utilizes a single transistor, at the base of which there is a biasing compacitor. The system is activated by grounding of a control lead in a microprocessor controller for the microwave oven. Grounding of the control lead charges the biasing capacitor until the transistor conducts. Transistor conduction produces a feedback which discharges the capacitor. The circuit electrically isolates the high voltage, high current magnetron power system from the microprocessor controller.
