Abstract

Pulse modulators are used to produce high-voltage, high-power pulses with durations of several hundred microseconds up to some milliseconds Marx modulator is one such modulator used in Klystrons or Magnetrons. Klystron is used to amplify the RF signal Marx modulator uses the parallel series principle of charging and discharging to charge/discharge the capacitors. This paper describes the testing of a single module of 2.5 kV, 1ms Marx modulator. IGBT is used as a switch. A trigger circuit was used for triggering of the IGBT driver circuit.
