Abstract :
Transistors can be operated as collector-base junction diode switches. In addition, the transistor emitter can be used to regulate the rectification, as a controlled rectifier. Connected in series with a saturable reactor, transistor-reactor network is analyezed as a magnetic amplifier, and characteristic rectified output waveforms are presented.
