    摘要: This DC-pulse power supply device is provided with: a DC power supply; a pulse unit (20) for generating a pulse output using a step-up chopper circuit connected to the DC power supply; and a voltage superimposing unit (30A, 30B) connected to a DC reactor of the step-up chopper circuit. The voltage superimposing unit (30A, 30B) superimposes an amount (Vc, VDCL2) corresponding to a superimposed voltage on the output voltage of the step-up chopper circuit. The pulse unit (20) outputs, in a pulse form, the output voltage (Vo) on which the amount (Vc, VDCL2) corresponding to the superimposed voltage is superimposed by the voltage superimposing unit (30A, 30B). The amount corresponding to the superimposed voltage is superimposed on the pulse output of the step-up chopper circuit, thereby raising the output voltage of the pulse output of the step-up chopper circuit.

    摘要: This DC pulse power supply device includes: a DC power supply unit (10); and a pulsing unit (20) that generates a pulse output using a step-up chopper circuit connected to the DC power supply unit. A clamp voltage unit (30) has an output end that is connected to a connection point (s) between a switching element (22) and a DC reactor (21), and applies a clamp voltage (VC) to one end of the switching element (22). During an off period (Toff) of the step-up chopper circuit, the voltage at both ends of the switching element is clamped so as to prevent damage to the switching element, suppress output voltage fluctuations resulting from load current fluctuations, and suppress power loss caused by a load current and a discharge current flowing through a resistor.

    摘要: A method for controlling an active snubber circuit includes measuring a gate voltage at a first transistor and measuring a gate voltage at a second transistor. The method also includes determining whether the first transistor and the second transistor are in the same state based on the gate voltage measured at the first transistor and the gate voltage measured at the second transistor. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the first transistor and the second transistor are in the same state, enabling the active snubber circuit. The method also includes, in response to a determination that the first transistor and the second transistor are not in the same state, disabling the enable signal. The method also includes disabling the active snubber circuit in response to the enable signal being disabled.
