Overview of circuit topologies for inductive pulsed power supplies

The pulsed power supply (PPS) is one important component in the electromagnetic launch system. The inductive PPSs have attracted researchers’ attentions with the major advantages of high energy storage density (over the capacitive PPSs) as well as simple structure and easy control (over the rotating mechanical PPSs). As for the inductive PPSs, the circuit topology of the basic module will directly...
