…to switching is called the forward-breakover voltage V_BF. The magnitude of V_BF depends on the gate current. Higher gate currents cause the current I_A to increase faster, enhance the regeneration process, and switch at lower breakover voltages. The effect of gate current on the switching behaviour is shown in Figure…
