Good day all, I've been developing a damped sine generator to perform the DO-160 lightning test, and have had some reasonable success. However ( there is always a gotcha ), the leading edge of the 1 MHz ring wave has a very short ( around 10 nS ) spike on it. I have tried a number of things to kill the spike, but to no avail. Does anyone have suggestions on what causes this, and ways to eliminate it?
I have strived to keep stray inductance small, very small, maybe too small..... The switch is a high voltage vaccuum relay. -- Derek N.
