The system can produce flat-top pulses from 1 to 30 ms with rise and fall times of less than 0.5 ms at a duty cycle of 3-91% into a heavily inductive load. As determined by physics needs, the operational parameters of this magnet place it between fast rising kicker magnets with short duration and slow rising (or DC) resistive magnets which are optimized for efficiency and current-based power loss. This magnet must operate efficiently with over 91% duty factor and have a modestly fast rise time. The resulting design uses a resistive magnet scheme, to optimize the current-based losses, that is pulsed using a new circuit to control the applied voltage. The magnet has a laminated, iron dominated, H-shaped core. Directly-cooled copper pancake coils energize the magnet. The modulator employs a novel, proprietary, over-voltage topology to overcome the inherent inductance and achieve the fast rise and fall times, switching to a precision DC supply to efficiently maintain the flattop without requiring voltage in excess of ±3 kV.
