Abstract

The application of inductive energy storage in the generation of high-current pulses has attracted considerable attention during recent years. In this article, a new inductive high-current pulse generator circuit is proposed based on XRAM (MARX spelled backword) current multiplier converter concept and multistage pulse transformers by using power electronic switches. This circuit is capable to recover the residual energy and generate repetitive high-current pulses with a flexible output pattern. To verify the circuit operation, simulation and experimental results of a two-stage laboratory prototype are presented. The results confirm the theoretical analysis and show the validity of the converter scheme.
