The DC power supplies for bending and focusing magnets of a typical large particle accelerator present special problems in the field of power electronics. Although they are in principal thyristor rectifiers in the kW to MW range, the rapid cycling and precise control of the output voltage and current call for unusual arrangements of thyristor bridges, and for postregulation to combine speed with a ripple free, highly accurate output.
