  • The uni-junction transistor (UJT) has two doped regions with three external leads. It has one emitter and two bases.
  • The emitter is heavily doped having many holes.
  • The UJT is used to trigger the SCR. 
  • The trigger voltage is equal to the capacitor voltage since the capacitor is connected between the anode and the ground.
  • When the capacitor charges to the trigger voltage, UJT turns ON, discharging the capacitor through R4, thus turning ON the SCR.
