roop Compensation for S

Solid State Marx type modulators for long flat to >20 µS have a limitation in that the output voltag Marx capacitors are discharged by the pulse suffices capacitance to alleviate the droop limitatio operation can have significant design, size, and c droop compensation technique is desirable for the Modulator for most long pulse applications. Droop capacitor switched modulators called a “bo successfully used by Fermi National Laboratory f modulators. The “bouncer” configuration however and inflexible to pulse length and load changes. Oth as the SLAC “mini-Marx” (a second low voltage interlaced with the main Marx) provide discontinu voltage waveform as well as a very complicate Stangenes Industries is developing a droop compe which provides for smooth and flexible pulse voltag compensation for the Solid State Marx Modulator and cost effective. The technique utilizes the m Solid State Marx module configuration and needs n source or complicated control system. The paper unique design of the Solid State Marx droop com pulse operation
