Thyristors, a family of four-layer semiconductor devices with three PN junctions, have been pivotal in power electronics since their invention, enabling efficient control of high-voltage, high-current circuits. Unlike transistors, which excel in signal amplification, thyristors operate in a latching mode—once triggered, they conduct until the current drops below a threshold or polarity reverses. This unique behavior makes them indispensable in applications ranging from motor drives to renewable

At first glance, thyristors and transistors (specifically bipolar junction transistors, or BJTs) might seem nearly identical—both often come in three-terminal packages like TO-92 or TO-220, with leads labeled in ways that evoke structural familiarity. However, beneath this superficial resemblance lies a world of operational differences that define their unique roles in electronic circuits. While transistors excel in precise signal manipulation and linear control, thyristors dominate in high-powe
