High-Voltage Pulse Generators

EHT pulse generators are designed to provide precision control over the output waveform to enable process optimization. These units have an isolated/floating output and can be biased with respect to the load or grounded. They have been designed to drive plasma loads for medical devices, basic research, and semiconductor processing.

The duty cycle, output voltage, and pulse repetition frequency can each be independently adjusted by the user from zero to their max. Isolated/floating output can be biased with respect to the load.

The user specifies required characteristics based upon application need. A build scenario could be:

rise and fall time 100 ns to 1 µs, depending on load
maximum output voltages 1 kV, 2.5 kV, 5 kV or 10 kV
maximum power 100 W, 500 W, 1000 W, 5000 W
frequency DC 100 kHz (a higher burst frequency is available), and
duty cycle 0% to 100%

The unit is delivered as a turnkey system and can be operated from the front panel, or by remote control. Current source only, or source-and-sink, options are available.

Duty cycle, pulse repetition frequency, and output voltage are all independently, user adjustable from zero to maximum value. Maximum output voltage and power are set at time of order. Please contact Sky Blue to discuss your application’s specific needs.
