Abstract

The turn-off behavior of the GTO Thyristor by its nature differs very much from that of other power f semiconductor switching devices. So canful attention should be paid in designing the GTO snubber circuit. This paper presents the effect of turn-off snubber circuit elements on the switching characteristics of the GTO, and describes considerations and criteria for the selection of the snubber component values.
