Difference Between Buck Converter and Boost Converter

October 4, 2022
Difference between buck and boost converter

A buck converter is a type of dc-to-dc converter by which we can control the output voltage from zero to the input voltage level. In other words, a buck converter is similar to a step-down transformer whose

Comparison Between SCR, BJT, MOSFET & IGBT

October 4, 2022August 4, 2022
Comparison Between SCR, BJT, MOSFET, IGBT

An SCR is a controlled rectifier made up of p-type and n-type semiconductor material belonging to the thyristor family. It consists of three terminals anode, cathode, and gate, and works similar to a diode when a pulse is applied to the gate terminal.

Difference Between IGBT and MOSFET – IGBT vs MOSFET

October 4, 2022July 23, 2022
Difference Between IGBT and MOSFET

An IGBT is a new development in power semiconductor devices that possess the advantages of both MOSFET and BJT. A MOSFET is a unipolar three/four-terminal voltage-controlled device.

Difference Between SCR and LASCR

October 4, 2022July 8, 2022
Difference Between SCR and LASCR

LASCR (light-activated SCR) is also a type of thyristor made up of semiconductor material that turns ON when light radiations fall on it. LASCR is almost similar to SCR except it will turn ON only when exposed to sunlight.
