What is Thyristor Operation and Characteristics about?

Thyristors are power semiconductor devices used as bistable switches in power electronics. They operate by switching between a nonconducting state and conducting state. Thyristors can be turned on by either increasing the anode voltage beyond the forward breakdown voltage or by applying a positive gate voltage. Once turned on, thyristors latch into the conducting state until the anode current drops below the holding current, at which point they switch off. Thyristors are modeled using a two-transistor model
