How can an SCR be made to conduct?
An SCR has three legs. The anode, cathode, and gate. The control voltage sent to the gate will allow the SCR to conduct.
What happens if gate voltage of an ON scr is decreased?
A: Nothing after an SCR conduct the gate has no more control to shut it off. So how do we shut off an SCR two way reverse the voltage on the SCR or reduce the current below the holding current. SCR are not DC friendly once on they stay on until see above
What is forward breakover voltage in scr?
Forward breakover voltage (V_BO) in a Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR) is the minimum voltage required to trigger the device into conduction when a positive voltage is applied across its anode and cathode. Once this voltage is reached, the SCR transitions from its off state (blocking) to its on state (conducting), allowing current to flow through it. This parameter is critical for determining the SCR's operating limits in various applications, such as power control and switching.
Why scr is called as bidirectional an controlled device?
Because it can control input voltage in both halves of cycle.
What is the function of a SCR?
A Silicon Controlled Rectifier - also known as a thyristor - is a diode with an added terminal whereby, by applying a "control voltage", the diode can be turned "on" but never "off".When supplied with alternating current an SCR or thyristor will always turn off whenever the current falls back to zero in every cycle.For more information see the Related Link shown below.In the case of a computer file, it's the extension type .scr used for a screen saver.

What is SCR Give its application?
scr is a silicon control rectifier used to control the rectifing voltage.. its a bidirectional device can use it for both the directions......

Speed control of motor using SCR?
An SCR chip is commonly used to control the speed of a motor. The speed is controlled using an AC circuit and phase angles.

How do you conduct test on speed control of DC motor using SCR?
Connect the SCR in series with the armature or field and control the firing angle of the SCR which in turns determine the current flowing to the armature or field.
Why scr is called as bidirectional an controlled device?
Because it can control input voltage in both halves of cycle.
Why scr is used in ac or dc voltage regulator?
The only use of an SCR in a powersupply regulator that I know of is a Crowbar protection circuit to force the breaker to pop if the regulation fails and the powersupply output voltage rises too high.
What is a threshold voltage in scr?
the voltage at which the current conduction occur

What is avalanche break down in scr?
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.
Can you use SCR as a switch with AC supply?
Many household dimmers are SCRs. The dimmer control knob or slider actually adjusts at what point along the AC wave the SCR turns on. If the SCR turns on earlier, and stays on until dropout voltage, it will make the lamp appear brighter than if the SCR was turned on later and stayed on until dropout voltage, and was therefore on for a shorter time each cycle.
