- Thyristor - Wikipedia
A thyristor ( θ aɪ ˈ r ɪ s t ər , from a combination of Greek language θύρα, meaning "door" or "valve", and transistor [1]) is a solid-state semiconductor device which can be thought of as being a highly robust and switchable diode, allowing the passage of current in one direction but not the other, often under control of a gate
- What is a thyristor and how does it work? - TechTarget
A thyristor is a four-layer semiconductor device, consisting of alternating P-type and N-type materials (PNPN) A thyristor usually has three electrodes: an anode, a cathode and a gate, also known as a control electrode
- Thyristor or Silicon Controlled Rectifier Tutorial
In this thyristor tutorial we will look at the construction and operation of the thyristor, or Silicon Controlled Rectifier, (SCR) in more detail In many ways the thyristor is similar in construction to the transistor It is a multi-layer semiconductor device, hence the “silicon” part of its name

Thyristor, any of several types of transistors having four semiconducting layers and therefore three p-n junctions; the thyristor is a solid-state analogue of the thyratron vacuum tube, and its name derives from the combination of the two words thyratron and transistor
