Talk:Practical Electronics/Crowbar circuit

SCR devices are very useful in crowbar circuits, and should be presented.


 * Done. The article now shows a SCR-based crowbar circuit diagram. (-: Even though the text calls it a "thyristor" :-). --DavidCary (talk) 13:56, 29 July 2008 (UTC)

Diode SD1
The text says, SD1 prevents triggers dure to capacitors in the main circuit. I fail to see how capacitors can induce overvoltages. Maybe inductors were meant instead?---&lt;(kmk)&gt;- (talk) 18:44, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
