Abstract

We report the design and development of insulated gate bipolar junction transistor based high performance driver for operating thyratrons in grounded grid mode. With careful design, the driver meets the specification of trigger output pulse rise time less than 30 ns, jitter less than +/-1 ns, and time delay less than 160 ns. It produces a -600 V pulse of 500 ns duration (full width at half maximum) at repetition rate ranging from 1 Hz to 1.14 kHz. The developed module also facilitates heating and biasing units along with protection circuitry in one complete package.

摘要

我们报告了基于绝缘栅双极型晶体管的高性能驱动器的设计与开发，该驱动器用于在接地栅极模式下操作闸流管。通过精心设计，该驱动器满足触发输出脉冲上升时间小于30 ns、抖动小于±1 ns以及时间延迟小于160 ns的规格要求。它在1 Hz至1.14 kHz的重复频率下产生持续时间为500 ns（半高全宽）的-600 V脉冲。所开发的模块还在一个完整的封装中集成了加热和偏置单元以及保护电路。
