Two transistor analogy of SCR
• A anode
• K cathode
• G gate
• T1 first transistor (P-N-P type)
• T2 second transistor (N-P-N type)
• J1, J2, J3 the three junctions
• (α1) current gain of first transistor T1
• (α2) current gain of second transistor T2

or
IB1 = (1 - α1) IA
From fig. it is clear that, IB1 = IC2

Two transistor analogy of SCR
• We known that,
IC2 = α2.IK
• (1 - α1) IA = α2.IK

• This will give rise to the flow of collector current IC2 in T2.
Since IC2 is same as the base current of T1 (IC2 = IB1),
the first transistor T1 will be switched ON. Now, each of
the transistors would supply base current to the other,
thus the action is regenerative.
