Abstract :
A high voltage modulator has been built and tested at Brookhaven National Laboratory. Its function is to drive the gun anode of the RHIC Electron Lens(elens). It is capable of outputting a square wave of 10kV and a continuous rep rate of 80kHz. The pulse width is continuously adjustable from 500ns to DC. The rise time and the fall time (10%-90%) are under 50ns.
