Hello. This is the circuit of high power magnetic pulser I'm working on -
Simple circuit with neon bulb triggering SCR works fine. I just tried to use digital pulse generator instead. My power resistors are only rated @ 25W and they get quite warm (approx 65 C). Also, I found my AWG 16 coil getting warm and perhaps AWG 14 would be better choice. I just used what I had on hand. Personally, I like to keep things simple and there is nothing wrong with neon trigger. Anyway, I'm not done with it yet but I thought to share anyway.
Update: I made a short YT about that and uploading now but it may take 6hrs to appear due to my kids online activities Here is a link - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UfHK_...ature=youtu.be
Thanks
