For thyristors pulse triggering is preferred than dc triggering because: Correct Answer All the above

For thyristors pulse triggering is preferred than dc triggering because:

  • The DC gate voltage and current increase losses in the SCR
  • Pulsed triggering is to reduce gate losses
  • The pulsed gate drive can easily be passed through isolation transformers to isolate SCR and the trigger circuit
