In the chopper circuit shown, the main thyristor $$\left( {{T_M}} \right)$$ is operated at a duty ratio of $$0.8$$ which is much larger than the commutation interval. If the maximum allowable reapplied $${{dV} \over {dt}}$$ on $${T_M}$$ is $$50$$ $$V/\mu s,$$
what should be the theoretical minimum value of $${C_1}?$$. Assume current ripple through $${L_0}$$ to be negligible. GATE EE 2009 Power Electronics - Choppers and Commutation Techniques Question 11 English
