A curcuit I would like to build calls for a 6 amp. 200 volt SCR. I can't seem to find that particular component and was wondering if I could use a SCR that is rated for 200 volts but has a amperage rating of over 6. After reading a little bit about SCRs I think the voltage rating is a trigger voltage so it shouldn't be changed. I'm not quite sure what 6 amp. means. Is it the maximum current a SCR can take?
