Description

The design of a beam-scan power-supply used in a 10 MeV linac E-beam irradiator is presented in this paper. The consideration of linear excitation current and principle of triangle wave modulator are included, control system based on single-chip and its anti-jamming scheme in industrial circumstance are introduced. A scanning magnet power-supply can produce continuous triangle waveform current, the frequency can be adjusted from 20 Hz to 50Hz in 1-Hz steps, and the peak-to-peak current is 20A. (authors)
