yes it is current controlled
SCR is bipolar device since current is due to both electrons as well as holes.
And SCR will conduct appreciable current when it is gated "on" and thus "told" to conduct. A silicon controlled rectifier(SCR) is an electronically controlled DC switch, and the gate is the terminal to which the control voltage is applied. Use the link below to learn more.
A thyristor is another name for an SCR, which stands for Silicon Controlled Rectifier.Thyristors or SCRs are bi-directional devices used to control the flow of AC current. Once triggered, the device remains "on" until the next wave of current crosses zero after the trigger is removed.For more information about thyristors or SCRs see the Related link shown below.
The difference between a current control device and voltage controlled device is that for current controlled device, the current is constant and the voltage is variable while for a voltage controlled device, the voltage is constant and the current is variable.
Triac is the current control device.
A SCR (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) is typically a current rating device. It is important to consider the maximum rated current when selecting an SCR for a specific application to ensure proper functioning and safety.
An SCR, a silicon-controlled rectifier, is a four-layer solid state current controlling device. When it turns on it acts like an electronic switch and rectifier.
SCR is bipolar device since current is due to both electrons as well as holes.
Avalanche breakdown in Silicon-Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs) refers to the rapid increase in current flow through the device due to high reverse voltage. This phenomenon occurs when the reverse voltage exceeds the breakdown voltage of the SCR, causing a sudden breakdown of the junction and a rapid increase in current flow. Avalanche breakdown can damage the SCR if not properly controlled.
And SCR will conduct appreciable current when it is gated "on" and thus "told" to conduct. A silicon controlled rectifier(SCR) is an electronically controlled DC switch, and the gate is the terminal to which the control voltage is applied. Use the link below to learn more.
A: An SCR does not produce DC per say but rather is the result of rectification. THE GATE will turn on the SCR when there is enough current available on the SCR. The SCR will not however shut of when the gate potential is reduced or removed. the two way to shut off an SCR is by removing the gate potential AND reducing holding current OR inverting the potential on the anode

Because it can control input voltage in both halves of cycle.
silicon controlled rectifier is a 3 terminal 4 layer device which has 2 consecutive P N junctions here the three terminals called anode, cathode and gate gate controls the conduction of the scr but diode just conducts in forward bias and blocks in reverse bias
The difference between a current control device and voltage controlled device is that for current controlled device, the current is constant and the voltage is variable while for a voltage controlled device, the voltage is constant and the current is variable.
Because it is controlled by the gate current
Triac is the current control device.
