Hi!
I'm trying to design a compact (3cm x 3cm x 3cm or smaller) way to boost 1k VDC to 10-15kV (less than 10 might work, but 10-15k is ideal) for space applications. These are the options I've found so far:
Thank you very much for your help!
I'm trying to design a compact (3cm x 3cm x 3cm or smaller) way to boost 1k VDC to 10-15kV (less than 10 might work, but 10-15k is ideal) for space applications. These are the options I've found so far:
- Cockroft-Walton multiplier- Size is an issue due to the number of stages
- Flyback Converter- Again, size may be an issue because of transformer itself?
- Marx Generator- Unsure about using large spark-gap switches in space
Thank you very much for your help!
