Abstract :
We describe the operating principle and test results for the high-power semiconductor RSD-based switch with the following operating parameters: • operating voltage − 25kV, • peak operating current − 200kA, • maximum transferred charge − 70C. The switch is intended for use by high-power capacitor banks in state-of-the-art research facilities. The switch is evaluated for its applicability in commercial pulsed systems. The possibility to increase the peak operating current to 500kA is shown.
