Abstract:This article proposes a new configuration of a Modular Multilevel Converter (MMC) and a Marx generator to generate fast-rising impulse waveforms. This new configuration improves the capabilities of the MMC-based high voltage arbitrary wave shape generator to generate fast-rising impulse since the MMC topology faces many inherent limitations. Similar to the conventional superimposed circuit of the AC transformer or DC rectifier circuit with the Marx generator, three hybrid circuits of MMC and the Marx generator… Show more
