Analysis of types and applications of silicon controlled rectifiers (SCRs): unidirectional, bidirectional, turn-off and light-controlled types
Introduction: Trick devices in power electronics Silicon-controlled rectifiers (SCRs), likewise referred to as thyristors, are semiconductor power devices with a four-layer three-way joint framework (PNPN). Since its intro in the 1950s, SCRs have been extensively used in industrial automation, power systems, home appliance control and other fields due to their high withstand voltage, huge present…
