ok, i'm stuck home today with no mode of transport... so i ask you this:
if i had a bunch of circuit boards from misc electronic equipment, and i was looking for a SCR then what should i look for? i know they look like transistors but what else? my goal here is to find one and unsolder it to use on my bread board circuit. so far i had no luck. also what are the leads labled as? i know theres the anode, gate, and cathrode but thats no good if i don't know what leads on the SCR they corespond to. if anyone has any pictures or something that could shine some light on this it would my post heplful! :lol:
why couldn't the companies lable the things "SCR" so people like me could find 'em easier...
