Today, the pulsed power systems have been employed in many applications. To meet the requirement of user, the pulse generator should enjoy the advantages of compactness, high flexibility, high pulse repetition rate and cost efficiency. Among all of converters that can be used to generate high voltage pulses, capacitance diode voltage multiplier (CDVM) is a good candidate to meet the mentioned requirements. In this paper a new converter that is combination of full-bridge inverter, CDVM and resonant circuit is proposed. The performance of developed converter is compared with the conventional circuits and is demonstrated via simulation in MATLAB/SIMULINK. Experimental tests on a prototype setup have verified the capability of this topology. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
