Electroporation, magnetics components, power electronics, power pulse generators, pulse transformersAbstract
A method for high power pulse transformer design is presented based on analytical assumptions that lead to sizing equations allowing one step design which may then be improved by iteration. An example of a transformer design procedure used in a pulse generator for electroporation is included.Downloads
