CONTROLLED TURN-ON THYRISTOR Abstract of the Disclosure A multistage amplifying thyristor incorpo- rates integral current control resistor regions between adjacent thyristor stages for limiting turn-on current in all but the main thyristor stage. The thyristor is essentially immune from di/dt turn-on failure without the need for external circuitry to limit di/dt in the thyristor. Modulation of the current control resistor region during turn-on is prevented by adequately spacing or shielding the region from the emitter of each thyristor stage as well as by adequate spacing or shielding of the resistor region from a portion of the lowermost emitter region containing a turn-on plasma of the preceding thyristor stage.
