Generation of high ac voltage using solid state Tesla coil technique / Mohamed Aman

High voltage power supply is considered as a prime apparatus in most high application and testing including the characterization of EMI radiation, transformer testing and even in the application of laser system. This paper describes the generation of high voltage ac using solid state Tesla coil technique. The system is confined of rectifier circuit, switching circuit and high voltage transformer. The work has successfully achieved 8.86kV with frequency of 33.2kHz. This development is possible to be incorporated with the Cockroft-Wafton stack for the generation of high voltage dc output.
