Design of the thyristor stack

1 or 2 thyristor stacks are used for a 6‑pulse bridge. They differ in the number of pick-offs from
the heat sinks. The thyristor stacks are equipped with various thyristors and corresponding RC
(resistor, capacitor) circuitry. Six thyristors are braced in one clamped thyristor assembly.
