This work demonstrates current pulse compression in circuits, highlighting its potential for low load applications.
In this work a new circuit to compress a pulse current utilizing transmission lines and transistor switches is proposed. It demonstrated a time compression factor of 2 on a low load impedance. A 12 m, 50Ω coaxial transmission line provided a current pulse of 3 A, 120 ns. A 6 m, 50Ω storage line connected to main line was able to store the 50% of the initial pulse. A fast switch was used in order to close both lines on a halved load impedance with respect to the transmission line characteristic one. We obtained a current pulse compression recording an output current of 6 A, 60 ns.
