The latching current of an SCR is 12 mA. Its holding current will be
Right Answer is:
4 mA
SOLUTION
The typical ratio of latching current to holding current lies in the range of 2.5 to 3. Here for calculation, we are taking the value of latching current 3
Latching current/Holding current = 3
Given
Latching current = 12
12/Holding current = 3
Holding current = 4
