Study of Analog and Digital Firing Methods for Converters

Shashikant V. Lahade; S. R. Hirekhan

Various sectors fundamentally and widely makes use of power electronic technology for controlling mechanism. Most of the methods involved controlling power by varying firing angles of thyristor using different techniques like RC time constant triggering, UJT relaxation oscillation triggering etc. Firing schemes with digital and analog circuit are discussed along with their numerous aspects like compatibility, benefits and their confines.
