Re: Marx Generator
Sounds like an interesting concept, depending on a
source of high-voltage inductors. It seems to me that without
diodes the charging would be resonant and critical as to
inductor size vs desired spark frequency. Charging through
resistors is simpler, but has an efficiency of only 50%, which
is intolerable.
Keep us informed on progress........
