hey frnds...i wanna design an ac/dc voltage regulator usin SCR,for my mini project work..i want a circuit diagram,with a simple explanation of how it works...i've been learnin about the properties of SCR too..it would be helpful,if anyone provides me with the solution...ganiz
IMHO an SCR is not ideal for regulation, because turning it off quickly is more difficult than for other semiconductor devices. Any delay in turn-off is likely to result in output ripple / poor regulation.
