High Voltage Generator Circuit. Make an ultra simple high voltage generator step 1. A bank of 36 marx generators is used by sandia national laboratories to generate x rays in their z machine.
The output voltage of this circuit is in kilo volts and it can seriously injure you or kill you. These resistors have to be dimensioned for the rated high voltage of the generator and are accordingly expensive. The circuit quickly ramps the high voltage up from zero and stops when the leakage current reaches a preset amount up to 100 ua.
A marx generator is an electrical circuit first described by erwin otto marx in 1924.
According of the real output voltage v t will in addition be necessary if the. The output voltage of this circuit is in kilo volts and it. According of the real output voltage v t will in addition be necessary if the. The permissible tolerances fort 1 and t 2 are therefore necessary and used to graduate the resistor values.
