Abstract

Pseudospark switches and magnetic switches have developed respectively for decades. But rare effort has been devoted to the combination of them and further, the coupling performances. This paper deals with the self-breakdown characteristics of a magnetic delayed pseudospark switch (MDPSS), which is a pseudospark switch being in series with a magnetic switch. By incorporating the advantages of pseudospark switches and magnetic switches, MDPSS shows great potential in the application of repetitive pulsed power system1. Furthermore, the commutation loss of pseudospark switches and the size of magnetic switches are significantly reduced.
