During reverse recovery time__________________?
Correct answer: D. both B and C
- A. charge carrier of junction J2 recombined
- B. charge carrier of junction J1 is swept out
- C. charge carrier of junction J3 is swept out
- D. both B and C
Explanation
During reverse recovery of an SCR, stored carriers are swept out from the outer junction regions J1 and J3, allowing reverse current to decay. This makes both statements B and C correct.
