The thyristor or SCR is a power semiconductor device which is used in power electronic circuits. They work like a bistable switch and it operates from nonconducting to conducting. The designing of thyristors can be done with 3-PN junctions and 4 layers. It includes three terminals namely anode, gate, and cathode. Thyristors are different compare with transistors. Because on-state conduction losses of thyristor are lower & also they have a handling capacity of high power. Whereas in transistors, they have great switching acts, switching speed is high and switching losses are low. This article discusses an overview of holding a current and latching current in SCR and also its differences.
