  • Abstract
    An SCR structure is provided with an anodegate which is used to speed up the device recovery and reduce it s turn-off time. The turn-off process of the "Anode-Gate SCR" is analyzed using the charge control approach. Experimental devices are described and the results of measurements are reported.
