[TCML] design idea

[<lightningfor@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,
I have an idea on an electronic tesla coil that I am thinking about
playing with, and I'm looking for feedback.
This may not be a new Idea, but I haven't seen it before...

The basic concept is to drive the primary tank circuit with a ferrite
transformer...
So you would have the typical HF driver circuit with a pair of big IGBTs
or similar on the end, driving the primary of a suitable ferrite
transformer at the correct frequency.
The secondary of the ferrite transformer would step the voltage up,
providing HV and HF to drive the tank of the tesla coil...

I am not looking for a better way to do things, just a different way.

As far as I can understand, this would work, but I am looking for
feedback...  been done before,why not, potential problems, potential
advantages, dissadvantages etc.

Carlos
