HIGH-VOLTAGE PULSE GENERATOR Russian patent published in 2024 - IPC H03K3/53 

FIELD: electricity.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to high-voltage pulse equipment. Generator comprises an Arkadiev-Marx pulse voltage generator (PVG), comprising a first adjustable charger, first and second protective resistors, a controlled multi-gap discharger, a row of identical stages, connected in a cascade voltage multiplication circuit, each of which contains a storage capacitor with first and second poles, first and second charging resistors, a damping resistor and an uncontrolled multi-gap discharger, as well as an output stage comprising, in its turn, a storage capacitor with the first and second poles, an uncontrolled multi-gap discharger, a separating resistor, a front resistor and an output sharpening discharger. Generator includes first and second current pulse generators (PCG-1, PCG-2), high-voltage controlled discharger and high-voltage separating diode module, wherein each of the pulse current generators comprises a controlled charger, a number of parallel-connected modules comprising a plurality of parallel-connected capacitors, a number of charging and discharging diodes, as well as a number of damping circuits consisting of series-connected resistors and inductors. At that, voltage class of capacitors used in PVG is considerably higher, and energy capacity is much lower than in capacitors used in PCG-1 modules, wherein voltage class of capacitors used in PCG-1 modules is considerably higher and power capacity is considerably lower than in capacitors used in PCG-2 modules.

EFFECT: possibility of implementing various operating modes of the generator, which differ in polarity and values of amplitudes of discharge current and output voltage; by values of voltage pulse rise rate; by duration of front and discharge current pulses; by polarity and values of charge amplitudes and durations of lightning current constant component.
