All,

speaking of surge generators, I'd like to make one to generate a short 
transient and a ring wave.

The main parameters of the first wave are:

Vpk - 600 volts
Ipk - 300 amps
Rise-time - under 1 microsecond
50% decay in about 6 microseconds
General shape - double exponential

The main parameters of the second wave are:

Vpk - 600 volts
IPA - 300 amps
Ring time 1 MHz
Duration to zero - about 8 cycles

The circuit elements are fairly easy to design, but I was wondering if there 
were any solid state devices I could use for a switch? i.e. IGBT, FET, TRIAC 
etc.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Derek Walton
