Q1:

A thyristor has its gate current zero. To start conduction the forward voltage must exceed

A about 0.5 V

B forward breakover voltage

C on state voltage

D peak working off state forward voltage

ANS:B - forward breakover voltage

With zero gate current, conduction can be started only if forward voltage exceeds breakover voltage.
