Aim:- To obtain the V-I characteristics of SCR and find the break over voltage holding current. Apparatus: - Ammeter, resistor, Voltammeter, breadboard, wires, SCR. Theory: -   A silicon controlled rectifier (SCR) is a semiconductor device that acts as a true electronic switch. It can change the alternating current into a direct current. It can control the amount of power fed to the load. Thus the SCR combines the feature of the rectifier and a transistor. If the supply voltage is less than the break over-voltage, the gate will open. Then increase the supply voltage from zero, a point is reached when the SCR starts conducting. Under this condition, the voltage across the SCR suddenly drops and most of the supply voltage appears across the load resistance R L . If proper gate current is made to flow the SCR can close at a much smaller supply voltage. V AK  = _______ Trigger count =I G=_______________   Procedure:- 1)    Set the V Now increase I G ...
