ABSTRACT:
A new GTO (gate turn-off) thyristor, especially one which can freely control the turn-on and turn-off of the SCR (silicon controlled rectifier) without affecting the features of the A.C. and D.C. function of the SCR i.e. the switching function of great current and high voltage which is impossible for transistor. The power consumption of the control circuits is very low and the power can be supplied by the input control source at the gate or by a separate source. With special design, this invention has little malfunction and is the best GTO thyristor in the world.
