Finn,Do you have a actual circuit of this ? are you running the IGBT at the BPS figure ?

Gary, It is going to be lower by an order of magnitude. Power transfer in a Tesla coil requires both ringdown and cap recharge. :-) Cheers, Finn Hammer Gary Peterson skrev:So assuming an adequate DC power supply and 50 kHz as the resonant frequencyof your Tesla coil's secondary (with a slightly larger topload attached),then a break rate of 50,000BPS will be no problem as long as the RMS currentdoes not exceed the transistor's RMS current rating, correct?
