The design for a power crowbar system for ZT-40 to sustain a total current greater than 10/sup 7/ A with less than a 7% variation for 250 ..mu..s is discussed. The circuit performance without the power crowbar system is used to determine the power required. Several methods for supplying the power crowbar energy were investigated and simulated before choosing the final system. The advantages and disadvantages of the various options are also presented.
