Correct Answer: the change in operation from one quadrant to the other is faster in circulating current mode
Correct Answer: as a trigger switch for SCR
Explanation:
It is a four layered PNPN device without a gate terminal. Its characteristics is similar to that of SCR with zero gate current. It is acting as a trigger switch for Thyristor.
Correct Answer: 0 and 180° respectively
Explanation:
Output voltage is maximum if a = 0 and is minimum if a = 180°.
Correct Answer: ac regulator
Explanation:
The output voltage is controlled ac.
Correct Answer: False
Explanation:
Any number of taps are possible.
Correct Answer: are always similar
Explanation:
For resistive load output current is always proportional to output voltage.
Correct Answer: Both A and R are correct and R is correct explanation of A
Explanation:
Since voltage across capacitor cannot change instantaneously it protects SCR against high
