Multi-Pulse Single Shot Explosive Power Supplies

The objective of all Phases of Lokis current and proposed research and development work under Topic A12-064, Multi-Pulse Single Shot Explosive Power Supplies is to create new types of compact, autonomous multi-pulse single-shot power supplies that are capable of producing a series of high voltage and/or high current pulses. The specific objective of Phase II of this project is to integrate these power supplies into various loads and test the resulting systems. We were successful in Phase I, as we were able to create three different types of these power supplies that show great promise as the prime power sources for miniature HPM systems, or other loads requiring high voltage or high current, when combined with miniature power conditioning components and impulse-loaded antennas.
