Question

suppose the anode current of a conducting SCR is a constant current of 100A. if its gate current is reduced to one-tenth, its anode current in amps will become

Answer 1

Given: Anode current of a conducting SCR is 100 A.

To find: Now current when  gate current is reduced to one-tenth

Solution:

• Now we have given that the anode current of a conducting SCR is a constant current of 100 A.

• Also we have given that its gate current is reduced to one-tenth.

• But now we know that in the theory of conducting SCR, anode current do not depend on gate current, that means anode current is independent from gate current.

• So if its gate current is reduced to one-tenth, there will be no change in anode current.

• Hence it will remain the same, that is 100 A.

Answer:

            So the anode current in amps will remain the same as 100 A.
