Abstract
The results of studying the process of switching deep-level dynistors (DLDs) with 16- and 24-mm-diameter structures in the modes of switching micro- and nanosecond pulses with amplitudes of several kiloamperes are presented. It is shown that the dynistor switching process is highly uniform. The results of DLD tests at a high repetition rate of switched current pulses are presented. The principle of constructing high-power DLD switches with independent triggering of dynistors, which is based on the use of a single-turn saturable-core choke in the power circuit and a saturable-core isolating transformer in the DLD triggering circuits, is described. A DLD switch with an operating voltage of 8 kV is considered, which can switch current pulses at a frequency of 2 kHz with an amplitude of 1.5 kA and a duration of 200 ns.
