Moderate
During which time maximum conduction spreading take place in the thyristor during turn ON?
Correct answer: B. Spread time
- A. Delay time
- B. Spread time
- C. Rise time
- D. Same for every case
Explanation
Conduction spreading occurs during the spread time, when the conducting region expands through the thyristor junction area. Delay time precedes significant anode-current rise, while rise time describes the main current increase.
