Is this another troll?

Last days i can see users with really stupid names.

Mate,

No, it is not another troll, and if you look into your picture and name, well...."the pot calling the kettle black".

I was actually looking for a good reference a couple days ago to understand an SCR flip-flop circuit I saw on YouTube but I didn't find a good reference. But today, my Google powers are better

SCR Manual Including Triacs and Other Thyristors – Fifth Edition, by General Electric from 1972 looks pretty comprehensive in over 700 pages. Click the link to start a download of the pdf.

A more recent handbook, Thyristor Theory and Design Considerations by On Semiconductor can be downloaded by clicking this link.

I didnt want to insult you, but yours name is kinda similar to user which makes new topics on new accounts and asking questions for fun, when you reply to them, he place same question again....

If you haven't noticed yet, I have been archiving resources like this in "Jon's Imaginarium" posts for easy reference. References, circuits I have found useful, new products you might have missed and so on are posted so they may easily be located. Check out the wealth of material there, and feel free to add to the list if you find good references.

I also own the General Electric SCR Manual.
It has been an invaluable reference for over 45 years.
Highly recommended.

I will try to get the hard copy of the "General Electric SCR Manual". I already browsed a bit and seems worth to have it
