RESUMO
Transmission line pulse transformers have been widely used in pulsed power technology. Traditional transmission line pulse transformers often use separate structures, which always introduces larger spurious parameters, and have lower voltage levels. In order to solve these problems, this note proposes a coaxial transmission line pulse transformer. A circular symmetric structure is used in the input and output ports of the coaxial transmission line pulse transformer, and there are no spurious parameters theoretically. Furthermore, this structure is suitable for hundreds of kilovolts high voltage applications. The structure and working principle of the coaxial transmission line pulse transformer are introduced in this note, and the circuit simulation research is conducted. The factors that affect the pulse transformation are analyzed. Furthermore, experimental studies of the square wave impulse response are conducted on an actual device. The result shows that the proposed coaxial transmission line pulse transformer can achieve the purpose of increasing the voltage amplitude while keeping the pulse waveform undistorted.
