Explain the concept of rectification in SCR.

• Rectification is the process of converting DC to AC using a rectifier circuit.

• Rectification is the process of converting AC to DC using an inverter circuit.

• Rectification is the process of converting AC to DC using a transformer circuit.

• Rectification is the process of converting AC to DC using a rectifier circuit.

What is the difference between SCR and diode?

• An SCR is a three-terminal device that can control the flow of current in one direction and can also be turned off by a control signal, while a diode only allows current to flow in one direction.

• An SCR is a two-terminal device, while a diode is a three-terminal device.

• An SCR allows current to flow in both directions, while a diode only allows current to flow in one direction.

• An SCR can be turned off by a control signal, while a diode cannot be turned off.
