Abstract :
Pulsed operation of six extraction magnets has saved $67, 000 in FY 75. Conversion of four six-phase supplies involved some unique analog circuitry. A minicomputer operated function generator provides control of up to 20 magnet power supplies with new dI/dt data available every 4 ms. The operator control console has several options which appreciably decrease set up time and decrease operator error.
