MCT | MOS- controlled thyristor | Power electronics

MOS Controlled thyristor (MCT)

  • It is basically a thyristor with two MOSFETs built into the gate structure.
  • One MOSFET is used for turning on the MCT and the other for turning off the device.
  • MCT is a high frequency, high power, low-conducting drop switching device.
  • A practical MCT consists of thousands of these basic cells connected in parallel just like a power MOSFET.
  • This is done to achieve a high current carrying capacity of the device.
Basic structure of MCT
  • The equivalent circuit of MCT consists of one on-FET, one off-FET and two transistors.
  • The on-FET is a p-channel MOSFET and off-FET is an n-channel MOSFET.
  • An arrow towards the gate terminal indicates n-channel MOSFET and the arrow away form the gate terminal is the p-channel MOSFET.
  • The two transistor in the equivalent circuit represents that there is regenerative feedback in the MCT just same as in an ordinary thyristor.

Turn-on process

  • An MCT can be turned on by applying a negative voltage pulse at the gate with respect to anode.
  • By getting this negative voltage pulse, on-FET gets turned-on and the off-FET is off.
  • During this time current begins to flow from anode A, through on-FET and then as the base current (iB) and emitter current (iE) of npn transistor and then to cathode C.
  • It turns on transistor and therefore collector current (iC) begins to flow in npn transistor.
  • Since off-FET is off, so this iC of npn transistor acts as the iB of pnp transistor, and hence pnp transistor is also turned on.
  • When both the transistors are on, the regenerative action of the connection scheme takes place, and the MCT is turned on.

Turn-off process

  • For turning-off the MCT, off-FET is energized by positive voltage pulse at the gate with respect to anode.
  • So this FET is turned on, and on-FET is tuned off.
  • After off-FET is tuned on, either base terminals of pnp transistor are short circuited by it.
  • So the anode current begins to flow through off-FET and therefore iB of pnp begins to decrease.
  • So iC of pnp transistor that forms the iB also begins to decrease.
  • In this way iB of pnp and npn transistors divide storage charge in their n and p bases respectively, begins to decay.
  • This regenerative action turns off the MCT.

Advantages of MCT

  • MCT has low forward conduction drop.
  • The turn-on and turn-off time of MCT is very fast.
  • The switching loss of MCT is very low.
  • The gate input impedance of MCT is very high.

Cardinal points of a lens system | Optics | General theory of image formation

Cardinal points of a lens system There are total six cardinal points of a lens system, which are first and second focal points, first and second principal points, and first and second nodal points. First and second focal points (First and second focal planes) A pair of points lying on the principal axis and conjugate to points at infinity are known as focal points. First and Second focal points A point on the principal axis in the object space so that the rays starting (or appear to start) from it become parallel to the principal axis after refraction from the lens system is known as first focal point (F 1 ). A point on the principal axis in the image space so that the rays parallel to the principal axis in the image space focus (or appear to focus) at this point after refraction from the lens system is known as second focal point (F 2 ). First and Second focal planes The plane passing through the first focal point, and perpendicular to the optic axis is first f...

आवेश तथा उसके गुण आवेश क्या है कोई नहीं जानता कि आवेश क्या है, केवल हम यह जानते हैं कि आवेश क्या कर सकता है तथा इसके गुण क्या हैं ? आवेश के प्रकार आवेश दो प्रकार के होते हैं, धनावेश तथा ऋणावेश। धनावेश प्रोटॉन के कारण होता है तथा ऋणावेश इलेक्ट्रॉन के कारण। तीसरे प्रकार का कोई आवेश ब्रहाण्ड में विद्यमान नहीं है। आवेश का क्वांटीकरण आवेश सदैव पैकेट के रूप में होता है, सतत्‌ नहीं। किसी वस्तु को दिया गया आवेश सदैव एक न्यूनतम आवेश का पूर्ण गुणज होता है यह न्यूनतम आवेश इलेक्ट्रॉन के आवेश के बराबर होता है, जिसका मान e = 1.6*10 -19 C होता है। q = ne,        यहां n = 0, 1, 2, ... आवेश संरक्षण का नियम आवेश को न तो उत्पन्न किया जा सकता है तथा न ही नष्ट किया जा सकता है, परन्तु इसे निकाय के एक भाग से दूसरे भाग में स्थानान्तरित किया जा सकता है। किसी विलगित निकाय का आवेश सदैव संरक्षित रहता है। Σq i = नियत,           यहां q i = iवे कण का आवेश आवेश के गुण स्थिर विद्युत आव...

Constraints | Classification and Properties of constraints | Classical mechanics

Constraints and its classification Constraints force Constraints are restrictions that limit the motion of the particles of a system. Physically constrained motion is realized by the forces which arise when the object in motion is in contact with the constraining surfaces or curves. These forces are called constraint forces. Properties of constraints force They are elastic in nature and appear at the surface of contact. They are so strong that they barely allow the body under consideration to deviate even slightly from a prescribed path or surface. This prescribed path or surface is called a constraint. The effect of constraint force is to keep the constraint relations satisfied. Classification of constraints           Scleronomic and Rheonomic This classification is based on time. The constraints are said to be scleronomic constraints, if the constraint relations do not explicitly depend on time. But if the constraint rela...
