Abstract :
This paper deals with the design of a solid state pulse generator based on the Marx concept. IGBT switches have been considered for the purpose of pulse generation across a resistive load. The proposed pulse generator is to be used for Electron gun application. Output specifications of the voltage pulse are peak output voltage 50 kV, peak output current 50 A, repetition frequency 10 Hz and maximum pulse width 5 μs. The design was verified with simulation in Proteus software.
