    1.3. THEORY:

    The SCR is a controlled rectifier, allowing the current to pass only in one direction, from anode to cathode. So it is unidirectional device. It has two states, one conducting and the other non-conducting. If anode is positive with respect to cathode, and can be forward biased, and conduct. When anode is negative with respect to the cathode, these two junctions reverse bias and SCR turns off. J junction has n on top and2 p below. With a positive voltage on the anode, this junction is reverse biased. Without the voltage applied to the gate, the SCR is indeed always off, When the anode is positive with respect to cathode, it can tolerate 50V before it turn ON without giving gating pulse.

    Fig: 2.1

    Thyristor V-I characteristics is drawn between anode to cahode voltage and anode current at constant gate current. This divided into three modes: 1. Reverse blocking mode 2. Forward blocking mode 3. Forward conducting mode

    Refer to figure 2.3, In reverse blocking mode, thyristor exhibits blocking characteristics like diode. A small leakage current flows. When reverse voltage applied is less than V , then BR device offers high impedance in reverse direction. So in reverse blocking mode, SCR acts as an open switch. In forward blocking mode, anode is made positive with respect to cathode with gate open. So in this mode a small current called leakage current flows. In this mode (curve O-M), the device does not conduct. In forward conduction mode the anode to cathode forward voltage is increasing with gate circuit open. Forward break-down occurs at the reverse biased junction J 2 at a critical Forward break over voltage (V ). Then the SCR switches into low BO impedance state. The curve M-N shows the device latches on to its ON state. Then the voltage across the device suddenly drops from high voltage to low voltage(1 to 2 volts). Suddenly a large amount of current starts flowing through the device. The curve N-K is called the forward conduction state.

    Forward Voltage Triggering: When anode to cathode forward voltage is increased with gate open circuit, the reverse biased junction J will break. This is 2 known as avalanche break-down and the voltage at which avalanche break-down occurs is called forward break over voltage V . At this voltage, thyristor changes BO from OFF state to ON state, characterized by a low voltage across it with large forward current. This current is called Latching current in ON mode. The forward voltage drop across the SCR during ON state is of the order of 1 to 1.5V and increases slightly with load current. After avalanche break down J junction loses 2 its reverse blocking capability. Therefore, if the anode voltage is reduced below V , BO SCR will continue conduction of the current. SCR will be turned OFF only by reducing the anode current below a certain value called Holding current value. Holding current is always less than Latching current (I >I ). L H

    Gate Triggering: This is the most common method used for triggering of SCRs. In fig.2.2(a); let SCR be OFF. Then the voltage

    For gate triggering, 3 types of signals are applied between gate and cathode of the device 1. DC signal 2. AC signal 3. Pulse signal

    V between anode and cathode will be AK V volts, with anode positive. Now if a voltage is applied between gate and cathode, 2 making the gate positive with respect to cathode, the SCR turns ON; and the voltage V will become nearly zero. The gate loses further control on the SCRAK

    2.4. CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

    Refer to fig 2.4, An AC sinusoidal voltage V sin t in series with a load resistance R is appliedm between the terminals MT and MT . A pulse voltage V will be applied between gate and terminal 1 2 g MT whenever the switch S in the gate is closed. ( Note that triggering signal is applied between 1 gate and MT only, but never between gate and MT ). In the following, whenever current flow 1 2 between MT and MT is mentioned, it is understood that the current flow is through the device 1 2 only. MT positive with respect to MT : If gate is made positive with respect to MT ; current starts flow 2 1 1from MT to MT . If gate is made negative with respect to MT ; then again current flows from MT2 1 1 2to MT ; but a larger gate voltage is needed for triggering the TRIAC.1

    MT negative with respect to MT : If gate is made positive with respect to MT ; current starts to2 1 1 flow from MT to MT , but here also, a larger magnitude of gate voltage is needed for triggering. 1 2If gate is made negative with respect to MT ; the current flow from MT to MT is triggered, with1 1 2a much smaller magnitude of gate voltage.

    3.3. THEORY:

    (Refer to fig 2.9) At voltage less than V a very small amount of leakage currentBO1 flows through the device. This is not sufficient to conduct the device. So the state 0-A is called blocking state. Whenever voltage reaches break-over voltage it starts conducting with VI characteristics as shown. The value of current corresponding to point is A known as break over current. For negative half cycle the characteristics is similar. Once the device turns on, it can carry a high current with only a small voltage drop across it. DIAC is mainly used to trigger TRIAC. When the current through the switch fall below the holding current, the DIAC goes off. 3.4. CIRCUIT DIAGRAM:

    A DIAC is a two terminal device which can conduct in both directions. It has no triggering mechanism to initiate conduction, and in this respect it is similar to a piece of ordinary conducting wire. But unlike a wire, it can block up to 30V in either direction before it starts conducting.Once it is conducting, there is a small ( about 3V) voltage drop across the device.

    4.3. THEORY:

    MOSFET is a power electronics device with three terminals called Gate, source and drain. (Similar to the base, emitter, collector respectively of a transistor). A control voltage is applied between the gate and source; with gate positive for N channel enhancement type MOSFET and gate is negative for P channel type MOSFET. Because of the high impedance that the device offers between the gate and the source; it draws virtually zero current from the signal connected between the gate and source. Hence it is called a voltage controlled device. In MOSFET, current flow is either due to flow of electrons or flow of holes, but never due to both.Hence it is called unipolar.

    Output Characteristics: Refer to fig 2.12(b)

    The output characteristics of MOSFET indicates the variation of drain current I as a function of drain-source voltage V with V as a parameter. For lowD DS GS value of V the graph between I -V is almost linear, this indicates a constantGS D DS value of ON resistance R = V /I . At very low value of drain-source voltage theDS DS D device has constant resistance characteristics. But at high value of drain source voltage, the current is determined by the gate voltage. For low V , graph linearDS but V is increased output characteristics is relatively indicating that drain currentDS is nearly constant. A load line intersects the output characteristics at point A& B. Here A indicates fully ON condition, B indicates fully OFF condition. So it behaves as a switch.

    5.3. THEORY: The Insulated Gate Bi-polar Transistor (IGBT) is a voltage controlled device that combines the advantages of both MOSFET & BJT. That is the fast acting feature and high power capability of the bipolar transistor, with the voltage control feature of the MOSFET. Its emitter characteristics are similar to those of the bipolar transistor and control features are those of MOSFET. It has high input impedance like MOSFET.

    VI Characteristics: Static VI characteristics of an IGBT show the plot of collector current I versus collector emitter voltage V , for various values of gate emitter C CE voltages. In VI characteristics of IGBT in forward direction, the shape of the output characteristics is similar to that of BJT. But here the controlling parameter is gate emitter voltage V , because IGBT is a voltage controlled device. GE Refer to fig. 2.15 In forward conducting mode, positive voltage is applied to the collector of the device with gate short circuited to the emitter terminal then the device operates in its forward blocking mode. Then the positive gate to emitter voltage applied of sufficient magnitude then the device switches in to forward conducting state. In forward conducting state, the device characteristics are similar to that of a forward biased P-N diode. This continuous up to gate-bias voltage sufficiently larger than the device forward current will saturate by increasing gate- bias voltage this state the device will operate it is active region. To turn off the device, remove the gate-bias voltage, then the collector current decays gradually and device becomes off. Actually the current flow cannot occur when negative voltage is applied to the collector with respect to the emitter, hence the device has reverse blocking capability.

    1. AIM: To study resistance triggering of thyristor.

    2. APPARATUS: 1. Universal Power Electronic Trainer Kit. 2. 230V, 15W bulb. 3. 560, 250W. 4. CRO 3. THEORY:

    3.1) Consider the half cycle 0 < t< for the supply voltage V (t)= V sin t. In the s m initial part of this half cycle, the voltage V is very small, and the SCR is in off state. s I =0 and i =I, the small current flowing through the resistance R , R and R ; V 0 A L 1 2 b l and V (t) V sin t = V (t).AK m s

    3.2) As t increases V (t) increases; and the SCR anode becomes more and more AK positive with respect to cathode. Simultaneously, V (t); the voltage between the GK gate and cathode increases, making the gate more positive with respect to cathode.

    3.3) These larger anode-cathode, and gate-cathode voltages cause the SCR to turn on at some instant 0 t . Once it turns on; V reduces to nearly zero, and the AK supply voltage gets applied across the load. The SCR continues to conduct till the current through it tends to reverse; at which point of time the SCR turns off. For a purely resistive load, turn off occurs at t = . For an inductive load, current lags behind the voltage and turn off occurs at a later instant.

    3.4) The maximum value that V can attain, if the SCR does not turn on, is V at AK m t = . At this instant, V also is maximum. Suppose this maximum value of VGK GK cannot turn on the SCR with its anode to cathode voltage maximum. As t increases beyond , both V and V decreases, and so the SCR can ever turn AK GK on. In resistance triggering, maximum firing angle that can be obtained is 90.

    3.5) To achieve a firing angle less than 90; the resistance R must be decreased. This 2 increases V for a given V ; and hence SCR turns on at a lesser V GK AK AK ( at t< ). Firing angle can thus be controlled from a little more than 0 to 90.

    3.6) Once it is off , the SCR remains off till the next positive half cycle of the supply, when the turn on process is repeated.

    3. THEORY:

    3.1) Like R-triggering, RC triggering can also be used along with an AC supply voltage to turn on an SCR during every positive half cycle of the supply. But, unlike in R

    o o triggering, the firing angle in RC triggering can be varied from 0 to 180 (nearly).

    3.2) C, D , and R of fig.4.1 are in series across the ac source, which circulates a current 2 L in the ACW direction in the loop containing these elements. For this direction of current, D in ON and shorts the potentiometer R. The voltage drop across R 2 L caused by this current is small and can be neglected. So, all the supply voltages appears across C; V =V and V reaches the value V at t=-/2, as shown in the C S C m figure 4.2.

    3.3) Period: - /2 t 0: The voltage (V -V ) drives a current in the clockwise direction through R and R. C S L For this direction of current, D is in open circuit, and if R is large; the capacitor has 2 a large time constant. The voltage across C decreases in magnitude at a small rate as shown in the fig.4.2.

Since V is always applied between C gate and cathode through D ; the SCR torns ON at t= .Once the SCR turns ON C 1 discharges through D and the SCR, and V becomes zero.

    Fig- 5.4 gives the UJT oscillator circuit, in which the capacitance is charged by the voltage source V through the variable resistance R. Till it reaches the required s value, I remains zero. The UJT is an open circuit for C. When V reaches the E c required value, the UJT suddenly becomes conducting, R becomes zero and R B1 1 gets directly across C. C discharges quickly through R (R has a small value) and 1 1 V decreases to small value. Now the UJT again becomes open, and C starts getting c charged again by V through R. Typical waveforms of V (t) and V (t) are shown s c o in fig-5.5.

    3.3) Ramp triggering:

    This is also called synchronized UJT triggering. The V (t) pulses of fig-5.5 are o usually used to trigger thyristor in power electronics circuit which have the AC source. These pulses must therefore be synchronized with AC source. For example, a pulse may be required degrees from every zero-crossing of an AC sinusoidal voltage. A circuit to achieve this is given in fig 5.6.

  • The voltage source V to the right points of A and B in fig-5.4 is replaced by the s circuit of fig 5.6. Waveforms of the AC voltage V ,voltages after diodes the zener s diode voltage V are shown in fig 5.7, from which it is evident that theses twoz waveforms have a definite phase relationship. It is the voltage V which charges z the capacitance of the UJT circuit and so the trigger pulses from the UJT bear a finite phase relation with V , and hence with the ac voltage V . Pulse output z s voltages are shown in fig 5.7.

    Fig5.7 also gives the waveform of the voltage across R , assuming terminals A&B 1 are open. V is determined by the zener diode. (V -V ) is the voltage appearing z s z across R . A large R will reduce the current due to this voltage across R .1 1 1

    The zener voltage goes to zero at the end of every half cycle of the supply voltage. So, the RC circuit starts with zero voltage across it every half cycle. Hence, the trigger pulse occurs a fixed time after every zero crossing of the supply voltage, and synchronization is achieved.

    3.4) Ramp and PedestalTriggering:

    Across the terminals A and B (zener diode terminals) of fig 5.6, a resistance R is 2 connected, which serves as a potential divider. The is shown in fig 5.8. When V reaches the V early in the half cycle of the AC supply voltage, the diode z z D enables C to be charged to a voltage V (pedestal voltage) very quickly. There after, 1 PD C gets charged through R and V increases beyond V . When V reaches the c PD c required value, the UJT is turned on and one pulse is obtained. In this type of triggering, a large value for V means that the triggering pulse PD occurs earlier. So the setting of the slider R controls the output pulse timing.2

    3.5) Pulse Transformer:

    Pulse transformers are often used in the firing circuits for SCRs. These transformers have three windings: one primary and two secondaries. The three windings usually have the same number of turns each. The windings are designed to have low resistances, low leakage reactance and low inter -3winding capacitances.

    If the magnetizing inductance of the transformer is small (this can be easily achieved by using air core, which reduces the weight), the input and output voltages waveforms will be as in fig 5.9

    The positive pulses only will be useful in triggering SCRs. The negative pulses can be removed, if desired, using suitable clipping circuits. The pulse transformer provides an electrical isolation between the primary side and secondary sides which is needed in power electronics.

    Experiment 6EXTENDED PULSE USING UJT TRIGGER

    34

    3.1) Extended pulse: UJT circuits (for example UJT ramp triggering circuit) give a narrow pulse as the output. Such a pulse is sufficient to turn on a thyristor, if the load is resistive. But consider an inductive load; the load current needs time to reach latching value( since an inductance delays current changes). If the gate cathode pulse goes to zero before this time; the SCR turns off as soon as the pulse is over. So, when an SCR is used with an inductive load, pulses of larger duration are needed. These are called extended pulses.

    3.2) Circuit to produce extended pulse: Operation of the circuit: Refer to fig 6.1, 6.3 During 0 < t< when V (t) is positive, a pulse of V (t) occurs at t= . Before this s i instant, the SCR is off and there is no current in the circuit. Both SCR and the zener are off, and V (t)=V (t)-V (t). Since they are off; both the SCR and the zener act like s a z

    high resistances, and share the total voltage V (t) in proportion to their resistances. sV (t) is positive, and the SCR turns on at t= ; .when the gate pulse occurs it a

    remains on for the rest of the half cycle, with V (t)=0. The SCR is ON,when t= . a At this time, let V (t)= V ; V < E. The SCR is on then the current through the circuit is s 1 1 still zero and V (t) appears across the zener with V (t) = -V (t).s z s

    pi

    3.THEORY:

  • Griet

    The SCR is ON When V (t) reaches E; the zener is on; and the output voltage stayssat E as long as V (t) remains greater than E. Subsequently, it follows the V (t) s swaveform for the rest of the half cycle. During the half cycle < t< 2 ; the zener is forward biased and has zero voltage across it, V (t)=0. Since V (t)=V (t);o a sV (t) is negative; V (t) also is negative and the SCR does not conduct, even when s atriggered.

    2. APPARATUS: 1. Universal Power Electronics Trainer Kit 2. 12V DC motor 3. CRO 4. 1, 10W resistor, 5.Diode-IN4007.

    3. THEORY:

    Refer to Fig 8.1

    3.1) Shows a single phase half wave controlled converter with an input voltage of V Sin t, and a permanant magnet dc motor as the load. A dc motor is an R-L-E m load. For just an RL load, the motor is to be replaced by one winding for a transformer(whose other winding is left open).

    3.2) At t= (0< ), the thyristor is triggered and it turns ON. The input voltage which till this instant is across the thyristor, will now appear across the load and current starts flowing through the thyristors and the load.

    3.3) If the load were purely resistive, the load current and the load voltage will be in phase. At t= ; when load voltage reaches zero, the load current also will reach zero. But since the load inductance opposes changes in the load current also will reach zero. But since the load inductance opposes change in load current at this instant load current is still greater than zero. Let the load current finally reach zero at t= , > . The SCR then remains ON from t= to t= and the output voltage

    becomes veduring the period t= to t= . This negative voltage across the load while the current through it is positive implies that part of energy stored in the inductance of the load is returned back to the supply. The rest of the stored energy of the inductor is dissipated in the load resistance.

    3.4) Fig.8.2.is identical with fig.8.1.except for the free wheeling diode FWD across the load .FWD does not permit the load voltage to be negative .Hence, in the period from t= to t= ; a) load current flows through the free wheeling diode and load voltage is zero and b) SCR current is zero, the SCR is reverse biased , and it turns off. Energy in the inductance has to be dissipated only in the load resistance and is larger than when a free wheeling diode is not used. If the inductance is large enough; the load current may persist till t= 2 + ; at which instant the SCR is triggered again.

    3.1) When ac voltage is to be stepped down, transformer can do the job efficiently, and without introducing harmonics in the output voltage. We can also get reduced voltages by employing SCRs. These are useful in applications where harmonics in the output voltages are acceptable. The circuit is as shown in fig.9.1

    1. AIM: To study and test performance of a semi converter with R-load.

    2. APPARATUS: 1) Universal power electronics kit. 2) UJT triggering circuit. 3) CRO.

    3. THEORY: Refer to fig.11.1

    3.1) Diode voltages V (t) and V (t) can never be positive. They can only be zero or 3 4 negative. (The anode to cathode voltage of an ideal diode can only be zero or negative).

    3.2) KVL gives V (t) =V (t)-V (t); valid for any t.s 3 4

    3.3) During the half cycle 0 < t , V (t) is positive. So V (t)-V (t) must be positive. In s 3 4 this half cycle at some instant, let V (t) be 10V. Then, at this instant, (V -V ) must s 3 4 be 10V. Satisfying the condition of 3.1, at this instant, V &V can possibly have the 3 4 values (0V & -10V) ;(-2V & -12V); & so on. We can argue that the pair of values V =0V and V =-10V is the only practically possible value. (Practically, there is a 3 4 small leakage current being delivered by the source V (t) through the diodes. This s current is a forward current in diode D , and so V must be 0).3 3

    3.4) We can thus conclude that during the half cycle 0 t , V is 0, diode D acts as a 3 3 short circuit,V is negative and diode D acts as an open circuit. If we assume that 4 4 none of thyristors is ON, i (t) and V (t) will be zero. KVL then gives V (t) =0 and 0 0 3 V (t) =V (t), which is positive. Thus thyristor T is ready to turn ON if triggered. If 1 s 1 T is turned ON at t= in this half cycle, the load current flows through T , load, 1 1 D and the supply for the rest of half cycle. At t= , the current i tends to reverse 2 0 and T turns OFF.1

    3.5) In the half cycle t 2; it is T that can turn ON and load current flows through 2 T , load and D .2 4

    3. THEORY: Refer to fig. 12.1,12.2

    3.1) Whenever both T and T are OFF, the following will be true:1 2 a) I (t) = 0. (No path for current to flow). 0 b) di /dt = 0 (since i (t) is zero continuously, this follows. This means that 0 0 Voltage across the inductance L is zero). c) v (t) = E. (from KVL).0

    3.2) In addition to T and T both being OFF, if V (t) is +ve ( half cycles 0 t , 1 2 s 2 t 3 ,), V (t)=0, V (t)= -V (t); V (t)= -E, and V (t)= -E+ V (t). On the 3 4 s T2 T1 s other hand, if Vs(t) is ve( half cycles t , 3 t ,) V (t)=0,V (t)=V (t),V (t)= -E, and V (t)= -E -V (t).4 3 s T1 T2 s (All these relations can be shown using KVL).

    3.3) Now consider the half-cycle 0 t , with T and T both off. V becomes 1 2 T1 positive when V (t) > E. Let it occur for t> . Then T will turn ON if triggered at s 1 t= , for any > . Let T1 be so turned ON. Then i (t) starts flowing through T , 0 1 the RLE load, D , and the supply. This current is opposed by E and so i reach zero 3 0 earlier than it would if E is zero. Let i reach zero at t= depending on the values 0 of E, L, and R, can be less than, equal to, or greater than . As an example, is considered to lie between and ( + ) in the waveforms of fig.12.2.

    3.4) From t= onwards, both T and T will be OFF. T2 will be triggered at t= ( 1 2 + ), to cause another cycle of load voltage and load current, similar to those described in (3) above.

    3.5) Waveforms of V , V , V and i are shown in fig.12.2. During the period s T1 0 0 t ; while the load current is not zero, the load voltage V is zero in this semi 0 converter circuit. (It would be negative in a fully controlled converter). Waveform of V is complementary to that of V .T2 T1

    3.6) For an R-L Load, simply assume that E=0 in the above. Waveforms will get suitably modified.

    (PNP transistor is not shown in the circuit .The capacitor C is for smoothing any 1 ripples in the V supply and is not essential for understanding the operation of the cc circuit) Operation:

    3.1) From the circuit of fig.13.3, it can be seen that the resistance of 3R is directly across the dc supply V volts. The inputs to the + terminal of comparator1; and cc to the terminal of comparator2 are (2/3)V and (1/3)V respectively. These cc cc do not change during operation of the circuit. 3.2) It can also be noted that the capacitance C, in series with the resistances R and A R , is also directly across V . The voltage V (t) across C is applied to the B cc c -terminal of comparator1 and also to the +terminal of comparator 2.3.3) At the instant of switching on power, V (t) =0.As can be verified from c Fig.13.3, R=0, S=1 and =0 at this instant. The NPN transistor of fig.13.3 acts as an open-circuit, and C starts getting charged through R and R , with a time A B constant (R +R ) C sec. V (t) increases.A B c3.4) When V (t) reaches V /3 and continues to increase, R become 1. The flip-flop c cc assumes the state R=1, S=1 and =0. Initial transient operation is now over. 3.5) When V (t) increases from V /3 to 2V /3 and slightly more, S becomes 0, R c cc cc stays at 1 and becomes 1. The NPN transistor acts as a short circuit and C in series with R is shorted.B3.6) V (t) now starts decreasing, and as it becomes less than 2V /3, S returns back to C cc the value 1; but stays at when V (t) decreases to V /3 and slightly lesser, R c cc becomes 0; and with R=0, S=1; becomes 0.

    3.7) The NPN transistor starts acting as an open- circuit. C now starts getting charged through R and R , and R resumes the value 1. With R=1, S=1, A stays at 0 A B while the capacitor is getting charged.

    3. THEORY:

    3.1) Fig.14.1 shows the collector coupled astable multivibrator using NPN transistor. The collectors of both transistors Q , Q are connected to the bases of the other 1 2 transistor through the coupling capacitor C , C . Since both are ac coupling, 1 2 neither transistor can remain permanently cut off.

    3.2) Instead the circuit has two quassi states and it makes transition between these states. Hence it is used as a master oscillator. No triggering signal is required for this multivibrator.

    3.3) The component values are selected such that, the moment it is connected to the supply, due to transients, one transistor will go into saturation and the transistor into cut off, and also due to capacitive coupling, it keeps on oscillating.

    3. THEORY: Refer to fig 15.1 and 15.2

    3.1) 15V, 50Hz single phase sine wave is converted into full wave rectified DC by using rectifier bridge.30V, 5amp fixed DC voltage is converted to variable DC voltage by using the 100k POT.

    3.2) The variable dc voltage is compared with full wave rectifier by using 741 op- amp. Here the op-amp is used as a comparator. When a sine wave is compared with dc output of the comparator is a square wave.

    3.3) The output of op-amp which is a square wave is available at pin 6. This is used as a gating signal to trigger MOSFET. When dc voltage is varying, the width of the output pulse gets varied.

    3.4) When width of the output pulse varies, average DC output voltage between the drain and source of the MOSFET varies, and the circuit acts as a chopper. The chopper output controls the speed of a DC motor. The circuit achevies power amplification as compared to the DC potential divider used in the comparator.
