Single Diode Module and Thyristor Module

A single diode module is a passive rectifying device that conducts current automatically when forward-biased, whereas a single thyristor module is an active, controllable switch that requires a gate trigger signal to start conduction.

 

Single diode module vs single thyristor module, what's their difference?

 

 Feature  Single Diode Module  Single Thyristor Module (SCR)
 Terminals  2 terminals (Anode, Cathode)  3 terminals (Anode, Cathode, Gate)
 Control Signal  None required (uncontrolled)  Requires a gate pulse trigger to turn ON
 Operation  Conducts automatically with forward voltage  Latches ON after a gate pulse; stays ON until   current drops  below the holding threshold
 Function  Passive AC-to-DC rectification  Controlled phase-angle power regulation and   switching
 Turn-Off  Natural commutation when voltage reverses  Natural (AC) or forced commutation circuit (DC)
 Typical Use  Standard power supplies and freewheeling   paths  Motor speed control, soft starters, and heating   regulators
