Optothyristors: Features & Principle of Operation
Silicon Controlled Rectifiers (SCRs), Triacs and other solid-state devices used for switching larger voltages and currents ON and OFF are referred to as thyristors. Thyristors control switching in an ON-OFF way, in the same way to a light switch which is different from a transistor that can vary the amount of current in its emitter-collector…
