High Voltage DC and Cap Charging Supplies1 |

A History Of Innovation and LeadershipTDK-Lambda Americas ALE High Voltage Products group has been designing and manufac-turing quality High Voltage DC and Capacitor Charging Power Supplies since 1982 when ALE Systems Inc., was conceived and formed to fill the need for a quality supplier of switched mode power supplies for the laser market. In 1987, when ALE was acquired by Electronic Measurements, Inc. (now TDK-Lambda Americas), the company was already the world leader in its field.

Today our ALE Series High Voltage power supplies are used throughout the world in applications including Homeland Security, Flat Panel Display Manufacturing, Semiconductor Processing, Micro Machining, Dentistry, Eye Surgery, High Energy Physics, and Radiation Therapy.

The ALE branded product range is the broadest in the industry, covering low powers with our OEM series from 500J/sec to 2kJ/sec at voltages to 40kV, medium powers with our rackmount series from 4kJ/sec to 12kJ/sec at voltages to 50kV, and high powers up to 30kJ/sec and above, at voltages to 50kV with our water-cooled 203 and 303 models.

In addition to the standard products outlined in this brochure, our highly experienced design team can offer a unique capability to design custom supplies to meet specific OEM applications.

Applications | 2

ApplicationsALE series high voltage power supplies were originally designed to rapidly and efficiently charge capacitors in laser and modulator circuits. Over our more than 25 year history, the high voltage products have continuously evolved and today are used in an extensive range of medical, industrial, military, research and semiconductor applications worldwide.

Pulsed Lasers - ALE series high voltage capacitor charging and DC supplies can be used in almost all types of pulsed laser. For excimer lasers requiring very high pulse to pulse stability, our patented parallel resonant inverter topology offers unsurpassed performance even at extreme rep-etition rates. Water-cooled designs prevent excessive and undesirable heat load being exported to the laser cabinet. The world’s first 6kHz repetition rate industrial F2 laser was powered by an ALE designed power supply delivering better than ±0.05% pulse to pulse output voltage variation. In ad-dition to Excimer light sources, our products have also been employed in the following lasers;

• Excimer • F2

• Nd:YAG • Ruby • Er:YAG • TEA CO2

• Nd:Glass • Nitrogen • Yb:YAG • Copper Vapor • Alexandrite • EUV Gas Discharge Sources

Accelerators - often require high powers and excellent pulse to pulse stability. ALE high voltage supplies have been widely used to replace traditional resonant charging and linear systems, where they offer the advantages of improved pulse to pulse repeatability, power factor, and efficiency, without the need for complex and costly D-Qing circuits, often in half the space of conventional supplies. In addition to powering RF devices, ALE supplies are also used for powering tube grid bias circuits, kicker magnet pulsers, RF Amplifiers, and Modulators. TDK-Lambda’s high power, low voltage, high current products are perfect for solenoid and magnet power in accelerator systems - see page 22 in this brochure for a product overview.

Microwave Tubes - Magnetrons, Klystrons, Gyrotrons, IOTs, and TWTs, all require stable DC or pulsed DC beam power for operation. With our high power capability, and simple parallel opera-tion, ALE supplies offer excellent solutions in low to high power RF applications. Our HV products provide power for precision R&D heating systems from a few hundred watts, to military systems delivering over 100kW of CW RF power. In addition to these highlighted sectors, ALE supplies are also used to power the following devices/applications;

• Lithotripters • Xray Cargo Inspection Systems • Battery charging • Xray radiation therapy • Laser Depainting • Energy research • LIDAR • Lightning simulation • Pulsed Light Sources • Ocean sub-bottom profiling • Electron-beam sterilization • Pulsed Stimulators • RADAR systems • RF Amplifiers • NDT Systems • Marx Generators • Pulsed Electron Deposition • Magnetic Forming

Turn-key High Voltage Power SolutionsALE’s Compact Turn-key High Voltage Power Systems, build on over 20 years of successfully design-ing and delivering multi-kilowatt DC power solutions to meet the demands of the most challenging applications. Extensive use of standard building blocks allows maximum system design flexibility and performance, while minimizing cost and delivery time.

Our modular and scalable design approach uses multiple standard power modules to deliver raw high voltage DC power for the system. The outputs of each power module are combined using a simple Junction box which can also accommodate any necessary output filtering and voltage/current feedback required. The complete system and individual power module outputs are centrally controlled by a Master Controller.

The Master Controller generates all signals required by the power mod-ules, and enables both local or remote user control of the system output voltage and current. The use of a multi-phase variable frequency control technique, results in low output voltage ripple without the need for large output energy storage filter capacitors. The controller communicates with each power module (or bank of power modules), and to the Junction Box to provide system output voltage and current feedback, and operating sta-tus.

Each power module comprises a single model 303S (or LC1202S for low-er power) water-cooled power supply. The 303S is a proven 50kW rated DC power supply which can be offered with any output voltage between 1kV and 50kV. The total number of 303S modules required in the system is determined by the overall power requirements, with one module for every 50kW of power (one per 40kW with 400VAC input). Since the overall design is 100% scalable, there is no theoretical limit to the number of 303S supplies that can be connected in parallel, and hence very high power ultra compact systems can be built using standard modules.

A Junction Box is used to combine the high voltage outputs from the individual power modules, and also serves to provide precision voltage and current feedback signals to the Master Controller. The Junction Box can also be used to house any filter or output protection components required. Filters can be as simple as a ripple reduction capacitor, or more complex multi-stage LC filter when ultra-low stored energy and ripple are required.

The modular and scalable design approach described enables TDK-Lambda to offer Compact Turn-key pow-er solutions with average output powers from as little as 30kW, to over 1MW using the same basic proven building blocks. Call our High Voltage Product Manager, Andy Tydeman at +1-732-922-5408 to discuss your specific power requirements, or to learn more.

High Power Parallel OperationAll ALE series capacitor charging and DC power supplies can simply be connected in parallel for higher power operation. For parallel operation all supplies in a system must have the same output voltage rating, but do not necessarily need to have the same power rating. There is no limit to the number of supplies that can be connected in a parallel system, and overall pulse to pulse repeat-ability performance will often be better compared with a single large supply with the same overall power capability.

In deep discharge capacitor charging applications (load capacitance is fully discharged between each pulse), the power supply HV output cables are simply connected together at the load, and the control sig-nals shared between all the supplies. For systems requiring local control, at least one L model supply can be operated with any number of S or OEM models. Control is achieved by connecting the slave interface featured on the L model supply to the remote interface(s) on any S or OEM supplies. The front panel of the L model supply will then give the user local control of the entire system. For systems requiring only remote control, any number of S or OEM supplies can be ‘daisy chained’ together via their remote control inter-faces. When operating parallel systems with supplies from different model series, the user should be sure to check the interface connections for correct pin assignments.

In reservoir charge or pulsed DC applications (load capacitance is only discharged by a small percent-age between each pulse) the power supply HV output cables can be simply connected together at the load, however some care is required with the control technique to ensure equal power sharing among system sup-plies. The most effective control method in this type of application is to use the first system supply reaching the programmed charge voltage (end of charge or EOC) to shut off the other system supplies. This is simply achieved by using the logical OR of the EOC signal from all supplies in the system (standard control feature on all ALE models), and connecting it to the inhibit input (standard feature) of all supplies in a system. The factory can supply a simple programming interface adapter that performs this function if required.

For continuous DC load applications such as providing beam power for Gyrotrons, Klystrons, Magnetrons, or similar microwave devices, a parallel system combined with an ALE designed system controller can offer the user full control of output current and voltage in addition to significantly improved load ripple and regula-tion. More information is shown on pages 17 and 18 of this brochure.

ALE supplies have been operated in parallel systems at power levels from a few kilowatts (two model 202A supplies), to over one megawatt (thirty model 303 supplies). A small sample of parallel systems operating today are highlighted below:

• 6 x 303S and controller generating 300kW of Gyrotron beam power • 10 x 303S and controller for Tetrode Amplifier Anode power• 2 x 202A - pulsed magnetron for RF threat simulation• 6 x 303L - line type modulator for medical sterilization• 4 x 303S - hard tube modulator in a research linear accelerator• 2 x 303L - line type modulator in a research linear accelerator• 2 x 303S with controller - power a Klystron for precision operation of a deep space radar• 2 x LC1202 - high power industrial excimer laser• 3 x 303S - N+1 redundant Naval Radar System• 2 x 303L - high power industrial Nd:Yag laser

6. Voltage Reversal Protection

Voltage reversal following load capacitor discharge can potentially damage the power supply. Any reverse cur-rent must be limited by a series resistor, or by a clamp diode and resistors to prevent the possibility of damage to the output diodes inside the supply. The degree of pro-tection required is a function of reverse voltage, duration of reversal, and repetition rate of reversal. If the reverse current is greater than the rated current of the supply then a protection diode should be used.

Refer to our online Application Note 517 for details, and guidance in determining the protection component rat-ings.
