ABSTRACT:
A power supply for electrostatic apparatus provides a high voltage output. The high voltage output is provided by the half wave rectification and filtering of a pulse signal from a secondary winding of a high voltage pulse transformer. The primary winding side of the high voltage pulse transformer is connected in a series loop circuit with a capacitor and a switching device. The capacitor is charged through an input choke connected to a DC supply source. The switching device is triggered after the capacitor is charged such that the capacitor is discharged through the primary winding of the high voltage transformer. The inductive collapse of the high voltage output transformer provides for the turnoff of the switching device and also serves to partially recharge the capacitor. The half wave rectified high voltage output of the power supply is obtained from the recovery pulse of the high voltage pulse transformer. The efficiency of the power supply is improved since ringing in the transformer is dampened due to the extraction of energy from the recovery pulse. The recovery pulse is much higher in amplitude than the firing pulse during which the switching device discharges the capacitor through the primary winding of the pulse transformer. During each repetitive period, the capacitor is charged, the switching device discharges the capacitor, and a short durational recovery pulse is generated. Several independent outputs of the power supply are obtained by providing respective, independent series combinations of transformers and capacitors with the series combinations being connected in parallel across the switching device.
