Choose the requirements to turn-on the thyristors in a controlled full-wave rectifiers.

Applying a control signal to the gate terminal of the thyristors.

The anode terminal of the thyristors is negative.

The cathode terminal of the thyristor is positive.

The half-cycle of the AC supply voltage is positive.

A diode is said to be reversed biased when the

cathode is positive with respect to the anode

anode is positive with respect to the cathode

cathode is negative with respect to the anode

both cathode & anode are negative

A diode is said to be forward biased when the

anode is positive with respect to the cathode

cathode is positive with respect to the anode

anode is negative with respect to the anode

both cathode & anode are positive

The SITH (Static Induction Thyristor) is a

3 terminal, self-controlled device

4 terminal, self-controlled device

4 terminal, un-controllable device

3 terminal, un-controllable device

Why an SCR is considered to be a semi controlled device because

it can be turned ON but not OFF with a gate pulse.

it can be turned OFF but not ON with a gate pulse.

it conducts only during one half cycle of an alternating current wave.

it can be turned ON only during one half cycle of an AC.
