ABSTRACT
1 INTRODUCTION
The use of resonant circuits in high voltage switching power
converters allows the voltage boost ratio of the transformer to
exceed the turns ratio, resulting in more compact designs, as
shown in Figure 1, and reduction of copper usage in the
secondary winding.

3 RESONANT TRANSFORMER
A set of three transformers, as shown in Figure 3, with
loosely coupled resonant secondaries are used to drive the
klystron tube through a doubling rectifier.

4 TESTING
Open loop testing of the power supply demonstrated the
effects of capacitor bank droop; the output voltage will peak
after startup and subsequently decrease as the input voltage
droops as shown in Figure 8. Transformer primary voltage and
current near resonance is shown in Figure 9.

Figure 11. As capacitor bank voltage (CH1) droops during the pulse, IGBT
switching frequency (CH3) tunes towards resonance, increasing boost ratio of
the resonant transformer and stabilizing output voltage (CH2). As switching
frequency tunes towards resonance, current from the capacitor bank (CH4)
increases.
