Abstract: In this paper, a strip air-core pulse transformer is designed to convert the current. And, how it works and the process of making iselaborated in detail. The transformer contains leads, insulator, copper strip and supporting core. Under the conditions of the charging voltage 2500 V, 5.52 kA and 1.48 kA peak current of primary and secondary windings are obtained, and correspondingly, the current rising rate is 37 A/s and 138 A/s. It is supported by analysis and experiment that the transformer can reduce the requirement of the rising rate of the switching current effectively. So, the thyristor can be used in the pulse current system which has a high current rising rate and improve its performance on repetition and stability.
