Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
The use of high voltage relays in variable pulse width magnetron type triggering circuits are avoided by the use of two separate pulse-forming networks. In addition two, separate banks of charging capacitors and switching transformers are employed. Separate SCR's are employed to apply charging current to either the first or the second bank of storage capacitors. Additional SCR's are employed to initiate the triggering sequence for the selected pulse forming network and associated circuitry. The selected pulse length might be microsecond or one-quarter microsecond, with pulse repetition rates of 1,000 to 2,000 pulses per second. Accordingly, the duty cycle could be in the order of 0.001?, or …
