Abstract :
Computer-aided analysis and design of both load- and forced-commutation circuits and di/dt and dv/dt protection circuits for thyristors are presented. The thyristor model used features five programmable parameters, including di/dt and dv/dt ratings. The simulation and theoretically predicted results are compared.<>
