Which statement describes the maximum di/dt in an SCR circuit?

Correct answer D. Both A and C

Explanation

At turn-on the rate of rise of current is limited by series inductance, giving maximum di/dt = Vm/L. It rises with peak supply voltage and falls as inductance increases, so A and C are both true.
