DEFINITION

Classification: 327/453

Silicon controlled rectifier (SCR):

(under subclass 447) Subject matter including a four layer, three junction device, which can be triggered into conduction in only one direction.

(1) Note. The formal name of an SCR is a "reverse-blocking triode thyristor".

(2) Note. The three SCR terminals are called anode, cathode, and gate.
