Abstract :
The aim of this paper is to present a power electronics building blocks (PEBB) concept for high power magnet (superconducting or classical) power supplies for physics research institutions such as nuclear accelerators and synchrotron sources. A PEBB system described in this paper is based on [13 kA, 18 V] high frequency zero-voltage/zero current switching (ZVZCS) converters built by Transtechnik for large hadron collider (LHC) machine at CERN. After a basic system description, interconnection and parallel operation of the basic system in order to increase the output current/voltage will be presented.
