A two-wire triac-based low voltage AC dimmer adapted for configuration in series with a typically incandescent lighting load. An external step-down transformer provides a source of low AC voltage, and a separate, electrically isoated loop circuit utilizing a step-up transformer converts a portion of the low AC voltage into a corresponding high AC voltage used to trigger the gate of a triac. An on/off arrangement that serves to lock the triac in its blocking may optionally be provided. A shunting resistor connected across the triac serves to dissipate static charge buildup that may otherwise falsely trigger the triac to its on state. A phi filter provides a smoother and more regulated triggering pulse to the triac, thereby minimizing or eliminating flickering and undesirable extinguishing of the incandescent lighting load at low brightness settings.
