🔍 Key Concepts

• Structure and operation of a silicon-controlled rectifier (SCR) • Meaning of complementary devices and AC (bidirectional) control • Basic function of common power electronics components: TRIAC, UJT, FET

💭 Think About

• Which device is specifically designed to conduct current in both directions and is often described as two SCRs connected in an inverse-parallel arrangement? • Among the options, which one is routinely used for AC power control such as light dimmers and motor speed controllers? • Which listed devices are not normally described in terms of being built from two SCRs with a common gate?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which option is commonly defined in textbooks as equivalent to two SCRs connected in parallel (inverse-parallel) with a common gate. • Eliminate components whose primary role is signal control or amplification rather than bidirectional AC power switching. • Confirm that the correct device can control current flow in both directions through a single three-terminal device.
