a. At high levels of gate current, the characteristics of an SCR approach those of what two-terminal device?


b. At a fixed anode-to-cathode voltage less than V(BR)F*, what is the effect on the firing of the SCR as the gate current is reduced from its maximum value to the zero level?


c. At a fixed gate current greater than IG = 0, what is the effect on the firing of the SCR as the gate voltage is reduced from V(BR)F?


d. For increasing levels of IG, what is the effect on the holding current?
