Pioneer of Strong Electric Shock - Thyristor

Thyristor, also known as Thyristorrectifier, is a high-power semiconductor device with a four layer structure consisting of three PN junctions. In fact, the function of thyristor is not only rectification, but also as a contactless switch to quickly connect or cut off circuits, achieve the inversion of converting direct current into alternating current, convert alternating current of one frequency into alternating current of another frequency, and so on. Thyristors, like other semiconductor devices, have the advantages of small size, high efficiency, good stability, and reliable operation. Its emergence has led semiconductor technology from the weak current field to the strong current field, becoming a component that is eagerly adopted in industries, agriculture, transportation, military research, as well as commercial and civil electrical appliances.
