The circuit in the figure is current commutated $$dc$$ $$-$$ $$dc$$ chopper where, $$T{h_M}$$ is the main $$SCR$$ and $$T{h_AUX}$$ is the auxiliary $$SCR$$. The load current is constant at $$10$$ $$A.$$
$$T{h_M}$$ is $$ON$$
$$T{h_AUX}$$ is trigged at $$t=0.$$ $$T{h_M}$$ is turned $$OFF$$ between.
$$T{h_M}$$ is $$ON$$
$$T{h_AUX}$$ is trigged at $$t=0.$$ $$T{h_M}$$ is turned $$OFF$$ between.
