Abstract

Along with rapid advancement of power semiconductors, voltage multipliers have introduced new series of pulsed power generators. In this paper, based on conventional voltage multiplier and by using power electronics switches a new topology in high voltage pulsed power application is proposed. This topology is a modular circuit that can generate a high output voltage from a relatively low input voltage with fast rise time and adjustable frequency, pulse width, and voltage levels using a series connection of switched capacitor cells. A comparative analysis is carried out to show the advantages of proposed topology. Experimental and simulation results are presented to confirm the analysis.
