Snubber Resistor Type. So we must use a metal oxide varistor mov a bidirectional transient voltage suppressor tvs diode or an rc suppression network also known as a snubber. The diode blocks any current in the network as the transistor turns on.
Compared to rc snubbers rcd snubbers have additional advantages. This combination can be used to suppress the rapid rise in voltage across a thyristor preventing the erroneous turn on of the thyristor. I have been looking up snubbers and the best type of resistor to use.
A 2 watt carbon composition resistor would be ideal for r s because it has very low self inductance.
A 500v snubber mike capacitor would be ideal for this appli cation and the standard values available are 390 and 470 pf. For f s 100 khz pdiss 1w. I have been looking up snubbers and the best type of resistor to use. We will choose the closest standard value and set c s 390 pf.
