A forced commutated thyristorized step-down chopper is shown in the figure. Neglect the ON-state drop across the power devices. Assume that the capacitor is initially charged to 50 V with the polarity shown in the figure. The load current ($I_L$) can be assumed to be constant at 10 A. Initially, ThM is ON and ThA is OFF. The turn-off time available to ThM in microseconds, when ThA is triggered, is________ (rounded off to the nearest integer).
The chopper circuit shown in figure (i) feeds power to a 5 A DC constant current source. The switching frequency of the chopper is 100 kHz. All the components can be assumed to be ideal. The gate signals of switches S$$_1$$ and S$$_2$$ are shown in figure (ii). Average voltage across the 5 A current source is
