Abstract

A pulsed high-voltage generator has been developed using semiconductor opening switch (SOS), based on inductive-energy-storage scheme. It is very compact and is capable of continuous repetitive operation at 1 kHz. A static-induction thyristor is used as the primary switch and a saturable magnetic core is used as both the step-up transformer and the magnetic switch. With DC power supply of 1.6 kV, it generates pulsed high-voltage output of ∼27 kV on resistive load of 500Ω, with pulse width of ∼30 ns.
