ABSTRACT:
A field controlled thyristor or a field terminated diode is used in a gate assisted turn off mode in a resonant circuit commutated switching dc/dc converter to convert power from one voltage level to another voltage level. A diode allows energy trapped in stray inductances to be delivered directly to the load rather than be dissipated in snubber resistors.
