Abstract :
A compact ten stage Marx with six parallel 40kV/5600pF capacitors per stage, developed for various pulsed power applications, is described. Every two stages have a common unattached gas switch so there are five switches that of two are trigger switch and three are self-breakdown switch. The spark gaps and capacitors are arranged radially at sixty degree intervals. Unique features of the Compact Marx include a peaking switch and a peaking capacitor that formed by the structure. It is 43cm in diameter and 67cm in height. It can generate as high as 250kV less than 5ns rise time pulse into a 100-150 ohm load.
