Background:ScandiNova Systems AB staff members have been building Line-type PFN-Modulators using thyratrons since the 1960s, producing pulse power from 1kW to 20GW and average power from 1kW to 5MW. In 1995 a new all Solid State Modulator technology was invented. A high power prototype (13MW) was tested in 1996 and since then the team have designed and produced many Modulators of different type and for different applications. When ScandiNova Systems opened for business in July 2001, the founders of the company were already fully experienced in this technology and established one objective – “To become the leader in the Solid State Modulator field by releasing the third generation of Solid State Modulator technology”. Today the ScandiNova technology has become well established in several applications.
