Family of Fibonacci-Type Marx Generators with a Single Inductor in a Three-Phase Configuration

High-voltage discharge applications have seen a widespread adoption of solid-state Marx generators (SSMGs) in recent years.In this paper, we propose a new hybrid solid-state Marx generator (HSSMG) with a single inductor.Through the application of a three-phase Fibonacci scheme, the HSSMG is capable of achieving a substantial increase in voltage output.Furthermore, the proposed HSSMG is able to generate high voltage efficiently with fewer components.The integration of the Fibonacci and boost modules is a crucial idea in the proposed technique, where the boost module increases the output voltage of the Fibonacci module to achieve higher output voltage.Regarding the proposed two-stage HSSMG, the theoretical feasibility of the proposed topology is confirmed by theoretical analysis and Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE) simulations.As a result of comparative analysis, it was found that the number of circuit components of the proposed two-stage HSSMG is approximately half that of the traditional SSMG.Moreover, the newly suggested two-stage HSSMG accomplishes more than 86% power efficiency at 5 W.
