Abstract
150 A/10 ns current pulses across a low-ohmic resistive load (1 Ω) were obtained using Marx type serial connection of the stages with parallel connection of a few avalanche transistors in each stage. The automatic feedback allows perfect time synchronization of the switching process in all the transistors
