Summary Solid state devices are an effective way to discharge capacitor energy into a pulsed power load. When solid state devices are used in series then care must be taken to ensure that they share voltage statically and dynamically. This project will identify the voltage and current stress on the thyristors, diodes, resistors and capacitors when the circuit is used to discharge capacitors into a load.
