SCR Circuit Analysis with 120V Power Source

SCR Circuit Analysis

• The circuit consists of a resistor (R), a power source (V), and a Silicon-Controlled Rectifier (SCR) triggered at 25°.
• The maximum voltage connected to the SCR circuit is 120-V.
• The goal is to determine the DC voltage delivered to the load, which is the resistor (R).
• The triggering angle of the SCR is 25°, which affects the DC voltage output.

SCR Circuit Analysis

• In an SCR circuit, when the maximum voltage of 120-V is connected and the SCR is triggered at 25°, the DC voltage delivered to the load is approximately 36.4 V.

SCR Characteristics

• An SCR has 4 layers and 3 terminals.
• Note: This is a key characteristic of an SCR device.

Analyze an SCR circuit with a resistor and 120V power source, triggered at 25°, to determine the DC voltage delivered to the load. Learn how the triggering angle affects the DC voltage output.
