windoze killa Posted April 17, 2006 Report Posted April 17, 2006 I have been in electronics for 30 years but I have never hear of a GTO. What is one? Quote
prateeksikka Posted April 19, 2006 Author Report Posted April 19, 2006 well GTO is a Gate Turn On Thyristor .Some people call it HEX FET.... Quote
windoze killa Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 Well I know a bit about hex fets and would never consider one to be a Thyristor. Quote
SM2GXN Posted April 19, 2006 Report Posted April 19, 2006 Here's some good reading about GTO,sCHARACTERISTICS_OF_POWER_SEMICONDUCTORS.pdf Quote
windoze killa Posted April 20, 2006 Report Posted April 20, 2006 Thanks. Looks like you can learn something new everyday. Quote
