Generation of Square Wave Pulses
into Capacitive Load

The HTS 31-GSM push-pull switch consists of two alternately controlled solid-state switches which in turn are made up of a large number of MOSFETs lying parallel and in series. The HTS 31-GSM has all the merits of the well-known range of HTS switches, e.g. simple control, high galvanic isolation, precise switching characteristics, high reliability, long life and small size. The push-pull switch described here can be used above all to generate true square-wave pulses of high edge steepness on a predominantly capacitive or resistive lad. Generator solutions with push-pull switches have distinct advantages over single switches with working resistors as regards power dissipation and pulse droop. In particular overlarge energy-storage capacitors and powerful high-voltage supplies can be dispensed with in the case of purely capacitive loading since no true power has to be provided for the whole pulse duration.
