what is the differnce between SCR and diode rectifier?

Answer Posted / abhishek ranjan

the very first thing is that diode is a two terminal device
on the other hand scr a three terminal device.rectification
with the help of scr is controlled rectification on the
other hand rectification with the help of diode is
uncontrolled rectification.SCR has a high voltage handling
capacity as compared to a diode.SCR is used in High
frequency applications but diode is low frequency used.
freuency devices, SCR can be in high temparatures but not diode.
