Investigation of Marx-PFN

  • 1. College of Photoelectric Science and Engineering, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha (China)

Description

The principle of Marx-pulse forming networks (PFN) is introduced in this paper. The PSpice simulation result of the Marx-PFN is presented and a smooth waveform is obtained in the condition of equal capacitance. Through optimization the parameters of the networks, a 4-stage Marx-PFN has been built, a 40 kV output with a FWHM of 3μs and a flat-top of 2μs is obtained on the marched resistance of 18Ω when the Marx-PFN is changed to 20 kV.
