WHAT IS THE DIFFERNECE BETWEEN THE SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES
AND POWER SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES?????????
Answer Posted / arun
Normally semiconductor devices are meant for handling small
powers of electricity. Power semiconductor devices derived
or made from semiconductors are for handling larger powers.
Semiconductor devices includes resistors, capacitors, small
power handling transistors etc. Resistance value is NOT
dependant on the amount of power to be handled, but its
size is. Power semicondtr devices includes SCR, TRIAC etc
which are derived from semiconductors but are for handling
larger powers..
