The input voltage in Fig. 3 is Vs = 220 V with load
resistance of R = 5ohms. The load and stray inductances
are negligible and the thyristor is operated at a frequency
of fs = 2 kHz. If the required dv/dt =100V/us is and the discharge current is to be limited to 120A. Determine the
i. value of Rs and Cs
ii. snubber loss
