 07 Dec 2006 12:24 Help needed - Switching PSU MOD for feeding a xenon lamp |
|

|
Hi all,
I need to build a power supply to drive a 150W Cermax xenon lamp. I'm thinking about modding a PC power supply by adding an ignitor circuit.
This kind of lamps requires a 28Kv pulse during 100ns for turn them on, and its consumption in steady state is 12,5A @ 12V approximately.
The point is how to combine the PSU and the ignitor circuit. I don't know if it's possible to simply connect the ignitor circuit and the PSU's output in parallel, or if some kind of additional protection is required in PSU's output stage.
Your help will be highly appreciated 
Regards,
