Engineering Research Equipment Grant: Fast Multichannel Digital Data Acquisition System

本提案中要求的高速数字波形采集系统将用于持续支持高压/脉冲功率实验室的一些项目。本实验室的主要研究方向是用于脉冲电源和配电环境的高压绝缘和开关。这些数字化仪将用于的具体项目包括研究真空中的表面闪络、压缩气体中的表面闪络、触发开关间隙的击穿和恢复，以及固态开关器件的导通开始。

The high speed digital waveform acquisition system requested in this proposal will be used in the continuing support of a number of projects in the high voltage/pulsed power laboratory. The main research interest of this laboratory is the insulation and switching of high voltages for application in pulsed power and power distribution environments. The specific projects in which these digitizers will be used include investigations into surface flashover in vacuum, surface flashover in compressed gases, breakdown and recovery of triggered switching gaps, and conduction onset in solid state switching devices.
