            Abstract : 
Computer analysis of SCR circuits is developed on the basis of topological considerations. Using the concept of hanging nodes and hanging branches, the open-circuited branches are removed from the circuit to get a modified reduced incidence matrix. This concept eliminates the problem of instability associated with numerical integration. Flow charts are discussed and computed results of a chopper circuit are presented.
