Abstract

The current density in the IPS(Inverse Pinch Switch) is 1/62 times less than that in the spark gap. It was shown that in comparison with the spark gap, the switch inductance of the IPS is largely reduced and the useful lifetime is significantly increased. In the paper, the design technology of a closing switch, especially IPS triggered by electrical signal for pulsed power system with a very high voltage and current is presented.
