Reverse conducting thyristor

Japanese: 逆導通サイリスター - ぎゃくどうつうさいりすたー
Reverse conducting thyristor

...A triac is a semiconductor made by connecting two thyristors in parallel in the opposite direction, and is used to control alternating current. A reverse conducting thyristor is a semiconductor made by connecting a thyristor and a diode in reverse parallel, and can operate at high speed. A turn-off thyristor (GTO thyristor) is an element designed to draw current in the opposite direction from the gate, so that the gate signal is used to switch from the on state to the off state. ...

*The following is a partial explanation of terms that refer to "reverse conducting thyristors."

Japanese:

…トライアックは二つのサイリスターを逆向きに並列接合したものを一つの半導体として作成したもので,交流の制御に使われる。逆導通サイリスターはサイリスターとダイオードを逆並列接続したものを一つの半導体として作成したもので高速の動作ができる。ターンオフサイリスター(GTOサイリスター)はゲートから逆に電流を引き出すことによってオン状態からオフ状態への移行もゲート信号で行うように作られた素子である。…
