Abstract
A small generator of high-power high voltage nanosecond pulses with a 12 V power source is considered. At a load of 75 Ω, it provides the generation of pulses with an amplitude of ~17 kV, a front of ~4 ns, and an energy of ~15 mJ. The maximum pulse repetition rate is 15 kHz. The generator contains an inductive energy storage device and a capacitive storage device with an operating voltage of 1 kV. The formation of high voltage pulses is carried out by a high voltage current chopper in the form of a block of drift diodes with a sharp recovery. The conditions for the effective operation of the diodes are provided by a block of parallel-connected IGBT transistors with an operating voltage of 1.2 kV. The possibility of using a generator for multispark ignition of the spark plug of an internal combustion engine is shown.
