    1) The circuit diagram shows an SCR circuit consisting of two transistors connected in a positive feedback loop. 2) When a small voltage is applied to the gate of the second transistor, it turns on which causes the SCR to turn on and maintain a conducting state. 3) Once turned on, the SCR can only be turned off by reducing the voltage applied to its gate.
