Triple resonance pulse transformer circuit

A modified, resonant pulse transformer circuit, based on a generalization of the well-known double-resonance pulse transformer circuit, is described. This modified circuit allows complete energy transfer in the presence of non-negligible internal capacitance of realistic pulse transformers, and substantially reduces peak transformer voltage, compared to the double-resonance circuit. Conditions under which the internal capacitance significantly affects energy transfer, and sensitivity of overall efficiency to circuit component values are discussed.
