A New Magnetic Method Broadening the Range of Pulse Width of Series-Connected IGBTs High-Voltage Pulse Generator

摘要

This paper describes a new method to broaden the pulse-width of the insulated gate bipolar translators (IGBTs) series connected high-voltage pulse generator based on magnetic coupling technology. This method can help the high-voltage pulse generator generate high-voltage pulse with different pulse-width, which can be hundreds of nanosecond (ns) to direct current (DC). The volume of high-voltage pulse generator can be more compact in this way, and the cost of generator can be lower. Through the tests, superior characteristics of the proposed method have been confirmed.
