Technical Data Printed order nr. BBC _ Silicon-Semiconductor BROWN BOVERI Com ponents D GHS 30393 E Thyristors A A Thyristors are controlled semiconductor cells. They are being produced in a four layer arrangement with alltogether three pn junctions s1, S2, $3, see Fig. 1b. In reverse direction such a device acts like a diode in blocking direction. In forward direction - corresponding to the forward direction of a diode - the device has two stable states. p The intermediate pn junction sz also blocks in the event of a positive voltage being 6 5% applied to anode A. Not until a gate trigger current passes from gate G to the cathode K ; will charge carriers flow across the intermediate pn junction s2 causing the device to be transferred to the conducting condition. a) 52 Fig. 1c shows the characteristic of a thyristor. On initiation of the gate trigger current G p the positive reverse characteristic changes to the normal forward characteristic, if voltage is applied in forward direction. 83 For firing the thyristor a trigger pulse is necessary. The values for trigger current, a = voltage and time are dependent upon the temperature. i Thyristors are available in two versions. A = Anode . Thyristors for application at system frequency (50 or 60 Hz) are as a rule not supposed a canons to meet special requirements with respect to recovery time als well as to turn-off K and turn-on response. b) Thyristors for application at higher frequencies (e.g. in self-commutated and load- ig commutated frequency convertors up to max. 10kHz) are being constructed with special gate configurations and emitter structures, these properties gaining importance with increasing frequency.
