Choose the right option among the alternatives – A thyristor goes into full conduction in its forward direction when anode/cathode/gate is positive with respect to its anode/cathode/gate and a turn-on voltage or current signal in the form of a pulse is given to its anode/ cathode/gate.
Consider the following statements: 1. In a silicon controlled rectifier (SCR), if the cathode gate is reverse-biased, then the SCR cannot fire at all. 2. The turn-on time of an SCR increases with temperature. 3. After an SCR is turned on, it can be made to turn off again by reverse biasing the gate. 4. Gate recovery time is the minimum time that the anode voltage must be maintained below holding voltage VH to turn off the SCR. Which of these statements are correct?
