Abstract:Ahtract-A PSPICE model for the MOS Controlled Thyristor (MCT) consisting of an SCR section, and two MOSFET sections is proposed. The parameters of the equivalent circuit are calculated from the data provided by the manufacturer and some simple measurements. The simulation and experimental results of a phase-controlled rectifier are compared.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
