New RF power system for superHILAC
Description
The upgraded RF system for the SuperHILAC is now operational using 9 new tetrode amplifiers. Each amplifier can produce in excess of 1Mw of 70 Mhz pulsed RF power. Ferrite is used to decouple the screen grid circuit and to absorb parasitic oscillations. This results in a very stable amplifier with reasonable gain. This system uses a common 6 Mw anode power supply and crowbar system. Overall system efficiency has been increased significantly. A 3 year payback on the equipment cost, realized from the power savings alone is projected
