Moderate
Gate circuit or triggering circuit of a thyristor is
Correct answer: A. lower power circuit.
- A. lower power circuit.
- B. high power circuit.
- C. magnetic circuit.
- D. may be low power or high power circuit
Explanation
The gate only initiates conduction and requires a small triggering pulse compared with the main anode-cathode power circuit. Hence the gate or triggering circuit is a low-power circuit.
