Over on YouTube [Lockdown Electronics] reviews an old bit of kit known as the Silicon Controlled Rectifier (SCR). Invented in the 1950s the SCR is a type of thyristor and they were popular back in the ...
Although the silicon controlled rectifier or SCR has been around since 1957, it doesn’t get nearly the love an ordinary transistor does. That’s a shame because they are quite handy when it comes to ...
An electrical device that converts alternating current (AC) to direct current (DC) is the rectifier. The simple process of rectification produces a type of DC characterized by pulsating voltages and ...
The R820 Series silicon control rectifiers provide modulation of electric loads using industry-standard proportional controls from thermostats and building systems. It incorporates a compact control ...
