  A new power supply has been developed using linear transformer driver (LTD) technology that adopts SiC-MOSFETs and capacitors without a thyratron switch or a pulse forming network (PFN) device. A new power supply was also designed by connecting the SiC-MOSFETs and the LTD modules in parallel-series. The output voltage and current were 40 kV and 4 kA, respectively with a pulse width of 1500 nsec at a repetition rate of 25 Hz. Furthermore, by adjusting the correction module, to an output voltage per stage of 1/1000, a resolution of the voltage correction of ±0.1 % could be achieved. It was possible to output the current with arbitrary timing by using a trigger input for each LTD module. As a result, fine adjustment of the output voltage waveform was possible within the order of nanoseconds. This new power supply with high voltage output, cur-rent output, and very fast pulse operation is one of the most important key technologies for a kicker system using SiC-MOSFETs. The design and preliminary test results of this prototype power supply are presented here.
